Hi & Welcome.
I can understand your concern.
Well, Mox (Amoxicillin) seems to have prescribed to treat the respiratory tract infection like bronchitis or pneumonia.
As a general rule one must have a normal chest x-ray to get the job visa attested to seek a suitable job in most of the GCC countries.
The doctor might have suspected some sort of infection based on your initial chest xray taken and hence you have been prescribed to take a course of Mox to clear the infection so as to get a normal chest x ray.
Hope this answers your query.
