Description
Lynx Injection contains an antibiotic medicine called Lincomycin, which is used for the treatment of serious bacterial infections in cases where other commonly used antibiotics have failed to cure or
could not be used due to allergic issues. Lynx Injection is to be used very judiciously when the sensitivity of infection-causing bacteria to Lincomycin has been confirmed.
