Overview

Avelox 400mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Moxifloxacin 400mg (as moxifloxacin hydrochloride). It is supplied as a tablet and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Avelox 400mg Tablet is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Avelox 400mg Tablet once daily with or without food, swallowing the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Avoid taking it at the same time as antacids, or supplements containing calcium, magnesium, aluminium, iron, or zinc, as these can reduce its absorption – space these products several hours apart.

Dosage

The usual adult dose of Avelox 400mg Tablet is one 400mg tablet once daily. Your doctor will determine the length of your course (commonly 5-14 days) depending on the type and severity of infection – always complete the full course as prescribed, even if you feel better before it is finished.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
