Description

Ag-Clor 125mg|5ml Suspension is an antibiotic medicine containing Cefaclor, a cephalosporin antibiotic, in a convenient liquid form. It is primarily used to treat bacterial infections such as otitis media (ear infections), respiratory tract infections like bronchitis, pneumonia, and pharyngitis, as well as urinary tract and skin infections. The suspension is ideal for patients who find it difficult to take tablets, offering an effective solution for treating bacterial infections in both children and adults. Always follow the prescribed dosage and complete the full course of treatment for optimal results.

Functions

Ag-Clor 125mg|5ml Suspension works by interfering with the growth of bacteria, thus preventing the bacteria from multiplying. By disrupting the bacteria's cell wall, it causes the bacteria to die and helps in treating infections. This makes it effective in treating infections in various parts of the body, including the ears, urinary tract, respiratory system, and skin. Cefaclor, the active ingredient, is known for its broad-spectrum antibiotic properties, allowing it to target many different types of bacteria.

Precautions

Before using Ag-Clor 125mg|5ml Suspension, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider, especially if you have a history of hypersensitivity to penicillin, kidney problems, or gastrointestinal diseases. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medication. It is important to take this medication exactly as prescribed, even if you start to feel better before finishing the full course, to ensure that the infection is fully treated.

Side Effects

Some common side effects of Ag-Clor 125mg|5ml Suspension may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. More serious side effects, though rare, may include an allergic reaction to the drug, resulting in rashes or difficulty breathing. Other rare but potentially severe effects include pseudomembranous colitis (inflammation of the colon) and hemolytic anemia (premature destruction of red blood cells). If you experience any of these side effects, it's important to contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Cautions

Ag-Clor 125mg|5ml Suspension should not be used if you are allergic to Cefaclor or other cephalosporin antibiotics. It should also be used with caution in patients with severe renal (kidney) impairment or gastrointestinal disorders. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, seek medical advice before using this medicine. Additionally, do not use this medication to treat viral infections like the flu or common cold, as it is only effective against bacterial infections. Always complete the full course of antibiotics to prevent the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
