Benefits of Doxy-T Tablet

In Respiratory tract infection

Respiratory tract infections are those infections that can affect the sinuses, throat, airways or lungs. Doxy-T AB Tablet contains two different medicines, Doxycycline and Bromhexine, that work together to kill the bacteria that cause respiratory tract infections. Doxycycline works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Bromhexine helps to loosen thick mucus, making it easier to cough out. This makes it easier for air to move in and out. It also enhances the activity of Doxycycline against bacteria.
