Directions for Use

Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Huflox 50mg Oral Suspension as these can affect the absorption of the medicine.
How it works
Huflox 50mg Oral Suspension is an antibiotic that interferes with the genetic material of bacteria by implanting defects in its DNA. These defects hamper the multiplication of the bacteria and affect its survival as well. It kills the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading without making them resistant to further treatment.
