Flustar Capsule 250 mg contains Flucloxacillin Sodium, a narrow-spectrum penicillin antibiotic used to treat infections caused by penicillin-sensitive bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus. It is commonly prescribed for mild to moderate bacterial infections including skin infections, respiratory tract infections, bone and joint infections, and ear, nose, and throat infections.

Flucloxacillin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial death and the resolution of infection.
