- Inactive Ingredients: May include magnesium stearate, gelatin capsule shell, titanium dioxide, and other standard excipients
How Floxapen Works
Flucloxacillin belongs to the beta-lactam class of antibiotics. It kills bacteria by inhibiting the formation of their cell walls, especially effective against penicillin-resistant staphylococcal strains. This makes Floxapen particularly useful for deep or persistent infections where resistance is a concern.
Uses of Floxapen 500mg Capsules
- Severe skin and soft tissue infections (abscesses, cellulitis, infected wounds)
- Bone and joint infections (e.g. osteomyelitis, septic arthritis)
- Respiratory tract infections including pneumonia and bronchitis
- Post-surgical infections and infected implants (as directed by a doctor)
Dosage and Administration
Take exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The usual adult dose is one 500mg capsule four times daily, taken on an empty stomach — ideally 30 minutes before meals or 2 hours after. Complete the full course, even if symptoms improve early.
Precautions
- Do not use if allergic to penicillins or cephalosporins
- May cause side effects such as nausea, mild diarrhea, skin rash, or changes in liver function
- Use with caution in patients with liver or kidney conditions
