Introduction
HETRAC-250MG X100 contains Tetracycline, a widely used antibiotic that helps fight various bacterial infections. It stops bacteria from growing and spreading, making it a trusted medication for skin infections, acne, respiratory infections, and other bacterial conditions.

How HETRAC-250MG Works
Tetracycline is an antibiotic that works by:
1. Entering a bacterial cell
2. Blocking their ability to make proteins
3. Stopping bacteria from multiplying
When bacteria can’t grow, your immune system can fight off the infection more effectively.
This action makes tetracycline a bacteriostatic antibiotic—it stops growth rather than directly killing bacteria.

- Take the tablet on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after meals)
