How it works

Betadix Syrup is a combination of two antibiotics: Nalidixic Acid and Metronidazole. Nalidixic Acid works by preventing the bacterial cells from dividing and repairing, thereby killing the bacteria. Metronidazole kills parasites and anaerobic bacteria that cause infections by damaging their DNA. Together, they treat your infection effectively.Betadix Syrup is a combination of two antibiotics: Nalidixic Acid and Metronidazole.

Stick to the prescribed dosing schedule and avoid giving a double dose to make up for the missed one.Remain calm.
