How Penclox Products work

Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus is a combination of three medicines: Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus1, Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus2, and Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus3. Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus1 and Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus2 are antibiotics which work by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering that is essential for the survival of bacteria in the human body. Together, they eradicate your infection effectively. Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus3 is a live microorganism which restores the balance of good bacteria in the intestine that may get upset with antibiotic use or due to intestinal infections.
