USES OF CYCLORIN CAPSULE
- Tuberculosis (TB)
Cyclorin Capsule is an antibiotic medicine used to treat drug-resistant tuberculosis. It is generally used in combination with other medicines. This medicine is used when the bacteria have developed resistance to other antibiotics.
Cyclorin Capsule may be taken with or without food. You should take it regularly at evenly spaced intervals as per the dose and schedule prescribed by your doctor. Taking it at the same time every day will help you to remember to take it. You should always complete a full course of this antibiotic as prescribed by your doctor.
