General Information on Cefuroxime Axetil (as an antibiotic):

Cefuroxime Axetil is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It is prescribed to treat a broad spectrum of bacterial infections.

Common Uses (as prescribed by a doctor):

• Respiratory Tract Infections: Such as acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, sinusitis, pharyngitis, and tonsillitis.
• Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs).
• Skin and Soft Tissue Infections.
• Acute Otitis Media (middle ear infections).
• Lyme disease (early stage).

Mechanism of Action:

Cefuroxime Axetil works by interfering with the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, which ultimately leads to the destruction of the bacteria.

Important Considerations:

• As an antibiotic, CEFAGRATE™ 250 Tablets are effective only against bacterial infections and will not provide relief for viral conditions like the common cold or flu.
• This medication should only be used under the guidance and prescription of a qualified healthcare professional. Misuse of antibiotics can lead to the development of antibiotic resistance and other adverse health outcomes.
• Always complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even if symptoms improve, to ensure complete eradication of the infection and prevent recurrence.
