Bacterial Lysate 50 mg

Bacterial Lysate 50 mg — Uses and Benefits

Bacterial lysate is mainly used to help prevent recurrent infections of the respiratory tract such as repeated colds, sinusitis, bronchitis and throat infections.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

HOW IT WORKS

• Contains inactivated fragments of bacteria commonly causing respiratory infections
• Stimulates the body's immune system to recognise these bacteria

• Not meant for asthma or allergic conditions unrelated to infection
