₹479.00
Cefuroxime 500 mg is an antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, and it is available under several brand names. It requires a prescription from a doctor.
Uses
Cefuroxime is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, but it is not effective against viral infections like the common cold or flu. Specific uses include:
- Respiratory tract infections, such as bronchitis and pneumonia.
- Ear, sinus, and throat/tonsil infections.
- Urinary tract and bladder infections.
- Skin and soft tissue infections.
- Specific conditions, including uncomplicated gonorrhea and early stage Lyme disease.
- Infection prevention following surgical procedures.
Dosage and Administration
- Swallow tablets whole: Do not crush, break, or chew the tablets as the crushed form has a very bitter taste.
- Take with food: Cefuroxime should be taken with food to increase its absorption and minimize stomach upset.
- Frequency: The typical dosage for adults is 250 to 500 mg twice a day (every 12 hours), but your doctor will determine the exact dose and duration based on your condition.
- Complete the full course: It is crucial to finish the entire prescribed course of medication, even if you start feeling better, to ensure the infection is fully treated and to prevent antibiotic resistance.
Potential Side Effects
Most side effects are usually mild and temporary, but some can be serious.
- Common side effects: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, headache, and dizziness.
- Serious side effects (seek immediate medical attention): Symptoms of an allergic reaction (rash, hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat), severe or bloody diarrhea, or yellowing of the eyes or skin.
