Treatment of susceptible bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections (sinusitis, tonsillitis/pharyngitis, acute bronchitis, pneumonia), ear infections (otitis media), urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and uncomplicated gonorrhoea (as prescribed).
How It Works
Cefuroxime is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins, leading to bacterial cell death. It is effective only against bacterial infections, not viral illnesses.
Directions for Use
Oral tablet; take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken with food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset; swallow whole with water. Complete the full course even if you feel better; do not skip doses.
Use only for bacterial infections. Inform doctor if you have allergy to cephalosporins/penicillins or history of severe allergy. Use with caution in kidney disease (dose adjustment may be needed). Diarrhoea can be a sign of antibiotic-associated colitis (seek medical help if severe/watery/bloody). Prolonged use may cause superinfection (fungal/other bacteria).
