Description

Aerocef 100mg/5ml Suspension is an antibiotic treatment containing Cefixime, a powerful cephalosporin antibiotic that is designed to treat a variety of bacterial infections. This liquid suspension form makes it easier to administer, especially for children or those who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules. Aerocef works by inhibiting bacterial growth and killing the bacteria responsible for infections in the respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues. It is highly effective against sensitive bacteria but does not work for viral infections like the flu or common cold. Each pack contains 30ml of suspension, providing a practical treatment for both adults and children suffering from bacterial infections.

Functions

Aerocef 100mg/5ml Suspension has multiple key functions:

• Treats Respiratory Tract Infections: This medicine is commonly prescribed for conditions like bronchitis, pneumonia, and sinusitis, which are caused by bacteria in the airways.
• Manages Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): Aerocef is also effective in treating urinary tract infections, including cystitis and pyelonephritis, helping to clear the infection from the bladder and kidneys.
• Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: It is used for treating various skin infections such as abscesses, cellulitis, and infections of the soft tissues.
• Effective for Typhoid: This suspension is also used in treating typhoid fever, a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella typhi.

Precautions

Before using Aerocef 100mg/5ml Suspension, certain precautions should be followed:

• Pregnancy: There is insufficient data available regarding the safety of Aerocef during pregnancy. It is recommended to consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
• Lactation: It is not known whether Cefixime passes into breast milk. Consult your healthcare provider before using this medicine while breastfeeding.
• Kidney and Liver Conditions: Patients with kidney or liver problems should use this medication with caution, as dose adjustments may be required. Always inform your doctor of any existing kidney or liver diseases.
• Allergic Reactions: Patients with known allergies to cephalosporins or penicillin should avoid using Aerocef. Notify your doctor if you have a history of allergic reactions to antibiotics.

Side Effects

Like any medication, Aerocef 100mg/5ml Suspension may cause side effects. Common side effects include:

• Gastrointestinal Disturbances: Some patients may experience diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, or an upset stomach. These are common with antibiotics, but if they persist, consult your doctor.
• Dizziness and Lightheadedness: Some people may feel dizzy or lightheaded, particularly when standing up quickly. If this occurs, avoid activities that require focus, such as driving or operating machinery.
• Headache: Headaches may occur as a side effect. Ensure adequate hydration and rest, and speak to your doctor if headaches are persistent or severe.
• Skin Reactions: Rashes or itching may develop in some cases. If you notice these symptoms, contact your healthcare provider.

Cautions

• Alcohol: It is advised to avoid alcohol while using Aerocef, as it may increase the likelihood of side effects, particularly gastrointestinal discomfort.
• Drug Interactions: Always inform your doctor about other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. Some medications, such as antacids or blood thinners, may interact with Aerocef.
• Driving and Operating Machinery: As Aerocef may cause dizziness in some individuals, it is best to avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if you experience these side effects.
• Diarrhea: If you develop severe diarrhea during treatment, especially with blood or mucus, discontinue the medication and contact your healthcare provider immediately, as this could be a sign of a more serious infection (e.g., Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea).
