## How Emdox 100 Mg Capsule (Doxycycline) Works:

Emdox 100 mg Capsule has an active ingredient; Doxycycline, an antibiotic which stops bacterial growth by preventing synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Doxycycline is a broad spectrum antibiotic which inhibits the synthesis of bacterial proteins by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit that is only found in bacteria. This prevents the binding of transfer RNA to messenger RNA at the ribosomal subunit which means amino acids cannot be added to polypeptide chains & new proteins cannot be made. This stops bacterial growth giving the immune system time to kill & remove the bacteria.
