Composition
Each 5 ml of reconstituted suspension contains:
-
Cefuroxime Axetil 125 mg
-
Clavulanic Acid 31.25 mg
Mechanism of Action
Cefuroxime Axetil is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to the destruction of bacteria. However, some bacteria produce enzymes called beta-lactamases that can inactivate antibiotics.
Clavulanic Acid acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor, protecting Cefuroxime from degradation. This combination ensures enhanced effectiveness against resistant strains of bacteria.
