Medical Description

Swiclox LB Capsules are a combination medicine used for certain bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections. They contain doxycycline, which stops susceptible bacteria from making proteins needed for growth, and Lactobacillus spores, beneficial microorganisms that help support the balance of bacteria in the intestine during antibiotic treatment. Doxycycline is the infection-fighting ingredient, while Lactobacillus is included to support intestinal balance. Swiclox LB capsules are swallowed by mouth with sufficient water, with or without food as prescribed. This medicine is for bacterial infections, not viral colds or flu.

Uses

  • Respiratory tract infections: Doxycycline helps treat certain susceptible bacterial infections affecting the airways or lungs when prescribed by a doctor.
  • Intestinal support during antibiotic treatment: Lactobacillus spores help support beneficial gut bacteria that may be disturbed by antibiotic use or an intestinal infection.

Contraindications

If you are allergic to any ingredient of this medicine, doxycycline, tetracycline-type antibiotics or any other ingredient, do not use it. Tell your doctor if you have difficulty swallowing, severe liver disease, increased pressure inside the skull, or a history of a serious reaction to an antibiotic. Do not use Swiclox LB capsules for a viral cold or flu unless a doctor identifies a bacterial infection.

Side effects

  • Nausea or vomiting: Doxycycline may upset the stomach, especially if it is used without enough water. Seek care if vomiting prevents you from keeping the capsule down.
  • Dizziness or low blood pressure: Doxycycline may make you feel unsteady or faint. Sit down, avoid driving, and seek urgent care if fainting or a racing heartbeat occurs.
  • Sun sensitivity: Doxycycline can make skin burn or develop a rash more easily in sunlight. Cover exposed skin and seek care for a severe reaction.
  • Skin rash or red spots: A new rash may be a sensitivity reaction. Get emergency medical help for breathing difficulty or swelling of the face, lips or throat.
  • Diarrhoea, reduced appetite or anaemia: Antibiotic-related bowel changes, poor appetite or a reduced red blood cell count need medical advice if marked or persistent.

Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or could become pregnant. Doxycycline is generally avoided during pregnancy unless a doctor decides that its use is necessary.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding. Doxycycline can pass into breast milk, so the doctor will decide whether this medicine is suitable.

Driving

Driving

Headache, dizziness or low blood pressure may affect alertness. Do not drive or operate machinery if you feel affected.

Alcohol

Alcohol

No specific alcohol interaction is known. Ask your doctor if alcohol worsens stomach upset or dizziness.

Directions for Use

Take this medicine as a whole with sufficient water. Swiclox LB capsules may be used with or without food, but remain sitting or standing and do not lie down for at least 30 minutes afterwards. Use the capsules while following the prescribed course unless your doctor tells you to stop.

Storage and disposal

Store Swiclox LB capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep them in the original pack and out of the reach of children. Do not use capsules after expiry. Ask a pharmacist how to dispose of unused medicine.

Quick Tips

  • Use Swiclox LB capsules with a full glass of water while sitting or standing.
  • Remain upright after using the capsule to reduce throat irritation.
  • Complete the prescribed antibiotic course unless your doctor changes it.
  • Protect your skin from strong sunlight with suitable clothing and shade.
  • Tell your doctor if diarrhoea becomes severe, persistent or bloody.

Dosage

Overdose

Taking too much doxycycline may cause severe nausea, vomiting, stomach irritation, dizziness or headache. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Doxycycline blocks the bacterial protein-making process, so susceptible bacteria cannot grow and multiply. Lactobacillus is a beneficial microorganism that helps support the balance of intestinal bacteria during antibiotic treatment or an intestinal infection. The two ingredients therefore provide infection treatment and intestinal support.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Swiclox LB capsules work. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins and supplements you take. In particular, tell your doctor about antacids, iron, calcium, magnesium or zinc supplements, bismuth products, blood thinners, seizure medicines, acne medicines containing isotretinoin and other antibiotics. Antacids, bismuth and mineral supplements can reduce doxycycline absorption. Some seizure medicines can lower its effect, isotretinoin can increase the risk of pressure inside the skull, and blood thinners may need closer monitoring.

Interactions with food items

Dairy products and calcium-fortified foods may reduce doxycycline absorption when used close to the capsule. Ask your doctor or pharmacist how to separate these foods from Swiclox LB capsules.
