So, a gap of at least 2 hours should be maintained between intake of Nudoxy Capsule and iron supplements and antacids.

Nudoxy Capsule may cause sensitive skin to sunlight and ultraviolet rays, causing an exaggerated sunburn reaction. Hence it is advisable to apply sunscreen before going outside. Its use has also been associated with an increased risk of fungal skin infections like (vaginal candidiasis - thrush). Tetracycline and Nudoxy Capsule can form a stable calcium complex in bone-forming tissue, thereby affecting the growth of fibula bones in young children and bone development in the foetus. Using a Nudoxy Capsule with isotretinoin should be avoided as it has been reported to cause pseudotumor cerebri (increased pressure inside the brain). Long-term use of Nudoxy Capsule may affect your blood, kidney, and liver health, so yearly diagnostics test of these parameters is recommended. Nudoxy Capsule does not completely prevent malaria caused by P. falciparum as a Nudoxy Capsule is given only for the prophylactic regimen (protection) whenever anyone enters a malaria-prone area.
