Fixcef Plus Tablet 250 mg + 62.5 mg is a combination antibiotic containing Cefuroxime Axetil and Clavulanic Acid. It is used for the treatment of various bacterial infections, especially when resistance to standard antibiotics is suspected or confirmed.
Cefuroxime Axetil is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects the antibiotic from bacterial enzymes, thereby improving its effectiveness against resistant organisms.
