Cefoprox 100 DT 10S

Tablet

Bacterial infections such as upper and lower respiratory tract infections (pharyngitis/tonsillitis, sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia), ear infections (otitis media), urinary tract infections, and skin/soft tissue infections caused by susceptible bacteria

Cefpodoxime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins, leading to cell lysis and death of susceptible bacteria.

Dispersible tablet: dissolve the tablet in a small amount of water and drink immediately. Take as prescribed by the doctor, usually with food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset. Complete the full course even if you feel better; do not skip doses.

Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, indigestion, headache, dizziness, skin rash, itching, vaginal yeast infection

Use only for bacterial infections (not viral). Inform your doctor if you have allergy to cephalosporins/penicillins, history of severe allergy, kidney disease, or previous antibiotic-associated diarrhea/colitis. May cause diarrhea; seek medical help for severe/persistent diarrhea or blood in stools (risk of C. difficile). Dose adjustment may be needed in renal impairment. Use caution in patients with gastrointestinal disease. Antibiotics may reduce effectiveness of oral typhoid vaccine.

Antacids and H2 blockers (reduced absorption), probenecid (increases levels), anticoagulants like warfarin (may increase bleeding risk/INR), nephrotoxic drugs (additive kidney risk)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
