CEFOXIM 250 (Cefuroxime (250mg))

Cefoxim 250 Tablet is an antibiotic designed to combat various bacterial infections within the body. This medication is effective against infections affecting the respiratory system, such as pneumonia, as well as those occurring in the ears, throat, nasal passages, urinary tract, skin, soft tissues, bones, and joints. Furthermore, it is utilized to prevent infections that could arise during surgical procedures. It is recommended that Cefoxim 250 Tablets be administered with food to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal discomfort. Patients are advised to take the medication consistently at intervals spaced evenly throughout the day, following the specific schedule provided by their healthcare provider. Establishing a routine, such as taking it at the same time daily, can aid in remembering to take the medication. Dosage will vary based on the specific condition being treated, and it is crucial to complete the entire prescribed course, even if symptoms improve before concluding the treatment. Halting the medication prematurely may allow certain bacteria to remain, potentially leading to a recurrence of the infection. It is important to note that this antibiotic is ineffective against viral infections like the flu or the common cold. Additionally, the inappropriate use of antibiotics when they are not required can diminish their effectiveness for future bacterial infections. Typical side effects include rash, vomiting, increased liver enzyme levels, nausea, and diarrhea. Although these effects are generally mild, it is advisable to inform a healthcare professional if they persist or cause concern.
