Cefuroxime axetil 250 mg + Clavulanic acid 125 mg (tablet)
Treatment of susceptible bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections (sinusitis, tonsillitis/pharyngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia), ear infections (otitis media), urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and dental infections.
Cefuroxime (a cephalosporin antibiotic) kills bacteria by inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects cefuroxime from enzymatic degradation, helping it work against beta-lactamase–producing bacteria.
Take as prescribed by the doctor. For tablets, take preferably after food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset. Swallow whole with water; do not crush/chew. Complete the full course even if you feel better.
Common side effects of CEFAKIND CV 250 may include:
Do not use if allergic to cefuroxime/cephalosporins; use caution in patients with penicillin allergy (cross-reactivity possible). Use with caution in kidney disease; dose adjustment may be needed. Prolonged use may cause superinfection (e.g., fungal) and antibiotic-associated diarrhoea/C. difficile; seek care for severe/persistent diarrhoea. Monitor for severe allergic reactions (swelling, breathing difficulty) and severe skin reactions. Inform doctor if you have liver disease or history of colitis.
