Product Details

Cef-Od Suspension 100 Mg 60 Ml is a potent antibiotic formulation containing Cefixime, a member of the cephalosporin family. It works by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) in bacterial cell walls, effectively inhibiting their growth. This makes Cef-Od an effective choice for treating various bacterial infections.

Purposes

The primary use of Cef-Od Suspension is to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible strains. It is indicated for uncomplicated urinary tract infections, otitis media, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, acute bronchitis, and uncomplicated gonorrhea. Its broad-spectrum action ensures it addresses multiple types of infections, providing effective relief.

Warnings

When using Cef-Od Suspension 100 Mg, caution is necessary, especially for patients with impaired renal function. This antibiotic can alter the normal bacterial flora of the gut, potentially leading to complications like Clostridium difficile overgrowth. Monitoring is crucial in patients with a history of gastrointestinal issues.

Adverse Effects

While many tolerate Cef-Od Syrup well, some may experience side effects, including diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and headache. In rare cases, it can lead to more serious conditions such as jaundice or seizures. Patients should be aware of these potential reactions and consult their healthcare provider if they occur.

Cautions

Before starting Cef-Od Suspension 100 Mg 60 Ml, it’s important for patients with a history of allergies to cephalosporins or penicillins to inform their doctor. Caution is advised in those with gastrointestinal diseases, as antibiotics may exacerbate underlying conditions. Always adhere to your physician's guidance for safe and effective treatment.
