Treatment of susceptible bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections (pharyngitis/tonsillitis, acute bronchitis), ear infections (otitis media), urinary tract infections, and uncomplicated typhoid fever, as prescribed.
How It Works
Cefixime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins, leading to cell lysis and death. It is effective against many Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
Directions for Use
Tablet for oral use. Take exactly as prescribed by the doctor; commonly taken once daily or in two divided doses. Can be taken with or without food; take at the same time each day and complete the full course even if you feel better.
Use only for bacterial infections; not effective for viral infections. Inform doctor if you have allergy to cephalosporins/penicillins or history of severe allergic reactions. Use with caution in kidney disease; dose adjustment may be needed. Antibiotics may cause diarrhoea; seek medical help if severe/persistent diarrhoea or blood in stools (possible C. difficile). Prolonged use may lead to superinfection; use as directed.
Drug Interactions
Warfarin and other anticoagulants (may increase bleeding risk/INR), probenecid (may increase cefixime levels), live bacterial vaccines such as oral typhoid vaccine (reduced effect), antacids containing magnesium/aluminium (may reduce absorption; separate dosing if advised)
