Nuromox CV is a combination medicine used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. It contains Amoxycillin which interferes with the growth and division process of the bacterial cell wall. Amoxycillin is an antibiotic which functions by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering, required for bacteria to survive. Nuromox CV is also composed of Clavulanic acid which is a medicine that ensures extended anti-bacterial activity. Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor which reduces resistance and enhances the activity of Amoxycillin against bacteria. This potent combination is used to treat bacterial infections of the lungs and airways, middle ear, sinuses, skin and the urinary tract.

Nuromox CV is prescribed by your doctor as you could be affected by bacterial infections.

Bacterial infections include meningitis, intra-abdominal infections, urinary tract infections, gonorrhea, pelvic inflammatory disease, skin and skin structure infections, acute undifferentiated fever, community-acquired pneumonia, brain abscess and spinal epidural abscess. Bacterial infections may be marked by localized redness, inflammation, pain or swelling. Common symptoms include inflammation, fatigue, vomiting, coughing and sneezing, fever, diarrhoea and cramping

Pathogenic bacteria can gain access into the body through a range of access routes. These include cuts, contaminated food or water, close contact with an infected person, physical contact with the faeces of an infected person, getting infected through another person’s coughing or sneezing or by touching contaminated surfaces like taps, toilet handles, nappies or toys.

 

A bacteria culture test can help find harmful bacteria in your body. A sample is taken from the patient’s blood, urine, skin or other parts of the body during a bacteria culture test. The cells in the sample are put in a special environment in a lab to encourage cell growth. Depending on the type of bacteria, results are often available within a few days.

 

Antibiotics are usually prescribed as medicines that fight bacterial infections. When used as per prescription by the doctor, antibiotics can save lives. They either kill bacteria or keep them from reproducing. Your body’s natural defence can usually take it forward from there on. When antibiotics are prescribed it is important to complete the course of the medicine even if you feel better. If you stop treatment too soon, some bacteria may survive and re-infect you.

Storage

Mechanism of Action

Clavulanic acid has a high affinity for and binds to certain β-lactamases that generally inactivate amoxicillin by hydrolysing its β-lactam ring. Combining clavulanate K w/ amoxicillin extends the antibacterial spectrum of amoxicillin to include many bacteria normally resistant to amoxicillin and other penicillins and cephalosporins.
