Description:
Cefuroxime 500 mg + Clavulanic Acid 125 mg is a combination antibiotic that combines Cefuroxime, a second-generation cephalosporin, and Clavulanic Acid, a beta-lactamase inhibitor. This formulation is designed to treat a broad spectrum of bacterial infections, including those caused by resistant organisms.
Cefuroxime works by disrupting bacterial cell wall synthesis, effectively inhibiting bacterial growth. It is particularly active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
Clavulanic Acid prevents bacterial resistance by inhibiting beta-lactamase enzymes that some bacteria produce to resist cephalosporins.
This combination is commonly used to treat respiratory infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and sinusitis, among others.
Tags:
- Broad-spectrum activity against a wide range of bacteria, including resistant strains.
- Enhanced effectiveness with Clavulanic Acid to protect Cefuroxime from degradation by beta-lactamase-producing bacteria.
- Convenient oral tablet form for easy administration.
- Effective against respiratory, skin, urinary, and soft tissue infections.
- Helps prevent the recurrence of infections and reduces resistance in bacteria.
