Description

Cefaclass 200 Tablet contains Cefixime 200 mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It works by preventing the growth of bacteria and destroying them by interfering with their cell wall synthesis. This medicine is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria but should only be used under medical supervision and not for viral infections like flu or cold.

Uses:

• Treatment of respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis, pneumonia, and tonsillitis

• Ear, nose, and throat infections (e.g., otitis media, sinusitis, pharyngitis)

• Urinary tract infections (UTIs)

• Uncomplicated gonorrhea and sexually transmitted infections

• Skin and soft tissue infections

• Typhoid fever and other bacterial infections as advised by the doctor

Side Effects:

While generally well-tolerated, Cefaclass 200 may cause:

• Common: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, indigestion

• Occasional: Headache, dizziness, flatulence, skin rash

• Rare but serious: Severe allergic reactions (swelling, itching, difficulty breathing), jaundice, or persistent diarrhea indicating colitis

Precautions:

Complete the full course even if symptoms improve early. Avoid alcohol. Inform your doctor about kidney problems, allergies to cephalosporins or penicillins, and ongoing medications. Not recommended for self-medication.
