Flustar Capsule 500 mg contains Flucloxacillin Sodium, a narrow-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penicillin class. It is primarily used to treat infections caused by penicillin-sensitive bacteria, including skin and soft tissue infections, respiratory tract infections, bone and joint infections, and infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

Flucloxacillin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial cell death, making it an effective treatment for mild to moderate bacterial infections.
