LILACIN-150

Clindamycin Capsules I.P. 150 mg

Lilacin-150 (Clindamycin Capsules I.P. 150 mg) works by stopping the growth of bacteria that cause infections. Clindamycin belongs to the lincosamide class of antibiotics and functions by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, preventing bacteria from multiplying and spreading throughout the body. This allows the body’s immune system to eliminate the remaining bacteria, leading to faster recovery. By effectively targeting a wide range of bacterial infections, Lilacin-150 helps relieve symptoms such as pain, swelling, and fever while restoring normal health.

Lilacin-150 is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms. It is commonly prescribed for respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, bone and joint infections, dental infections, and infections of the female reproductive organs. It is also beneficial in treating intra-abdominal infections and septic conditions under medical supervision. By managing infection at its source, Lilacin-150 helps patients experience faster relief and promotes overall recovery.

The dosage of Lilacin-150 should be taken exactly as prescribed by your physician. The usual adult dose depends on the type and severity of infection. It is generally taken every 6 to 8 hours with a full glass of water to prevent throat irritation. Swallow the capsule whole without crushing or chewing. Continue the complete course of therapy, even if symptoms improve early, to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance.

Storage: Store Lilacin-150 in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.

Common Side Effects: Mild diarrhea, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and a metallic taste may occur in some patients. These effects are usually temporary, but if severe or persistent, consult your doctor immediately.

Drug–Food Interactions: Lilacin-150 can be taken with or without food, but taking it after meals may reduce stomach upset. Avoid alcohol during the treatment, as it may irritate the stomach and interfere with recovery. Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated.
