Cefuroxime Axetil & Clavulanic Acid Tablet: Cefuroxime + clavulanic Acid is a combination antibiotic that is administered for treating several bacterial infections that may include pharyngitis/tonsillitis, otitis media (ear infections), sinusitis (infection of sinuses), gonorrhoea (sexually transmitted disease), septicaemia (infection into bloodstream), meningitis (inflammation of brain and spinal cord), and lower respiratory tract infections, as well as skin, urinary tract, bone, and joint infections.
Cefuroxime + clavulanic Acid is the combination of this drug, cefuroxime, with clavulanic acid. Cefuroxime works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell covering. Clavulanic acid acts by reducing bacterial resistance and improving the activity of cefuroxime against the bacteria.
Medical Benefits:
- Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid is included among antibiotics for various acute and chronic bacterial infections.
- It is a combination of two antibiotics, such as Cefuroxime (cephalosporin antibiotic) and Clavulanic acid (beta-lactamase inhibitor).
- Cefuroxime can block the development of the cell wall in bacteria, which is necessary for their survival, and thus kills them.
- Clavulanic acid decreases the resistance to bacteria, making the activity of cefuroxime more efficient against the bacteria. Thus, Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid is used for the treatment of bacterial infection.
Uses of Cefuroxime + Clavulanic Acid:
- It can be given to an individual to treat infections in the urinary tract caused by some strains of bacteria sensitive to the drug and to provide extensive coverage against bacteria.
