How Ceff 250 DT works
Ceff 250mg Tablet DT works by stopping bacteria from building their protective cell walls. It binds to specific proteins in the bacteria, blocking the formation of peptidoglycan, a key component of the cell wall. Without this support, the bacterial wall becomes weak and breaks, leading to the death of the bacteria. This makes Ceff 250mg Tablet DT effective in treating bacterial infections.

Several medicines in this group are on Schedule H1 precisely because overuse drives antibiotic resistance. Take it only when a doctor has prescribed it for you.
