Product Details

Fixitil T Capsules 200mg contain Cefixime, a broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic. It works by binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) in the bacterial cell wall, which inhibits the final stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial death. This medication is effective against a variety of bacterial infections, providing a potent solution for combating infections caused by susceptible strains.

Purposes

Fixitil T Capsules 200mg are used to treat various bacterial infections. These include uncomplicated urinary tract infections, otitis media, pharyngitis and tonsillitis, acute bronchitis and exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, and uncomplicated gonorrhea (cervical or urethral). This medication targets and eradicates bacteria responsible for these conditions, promoting faster recovery and relief from symptoms.

Warnings

Caution is advised when administering Fixitil T Capsules 200mg to patients with significantly impaired renal function, as dosage adjustments may be necessary. Broad-spectrum antibiotics, such as cefixime, can alter normal bowel flora and may allow for overgrowth of Clostridia, leading to potential gastrointestinal issues. Additionally, patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis, should use this medication cautiously. Always consult a physician before use, especially if there are concerns about renal function or gastrointestinal health.

Adverse Effects

Fixitil T Capsules 200mg may cause side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting. In some cases, changes in stool color, dyspepsia, headache, and dizziness may occur. Severe reactions, though rare, include seizures and elevated liver transaminases. If severe diarrhea or jaundice develops, discontinue use and seek medical advice promptly.

Cautions

Patients with a known allergy to cefixime or other cephalosporins should avoid using Fixitil T Capsules 200mg. Caution is also advised for individuals with a history of penicillin allergy due to potential cross-reactivity. Regular monitoring is recommended for those with renal impairment or gastrointestinal issues to prevent complications. Store this medication at room temperature, away from direct light and heat, to maintain its efficacy.
