Fixcef Plus Tablet 500 mg + 125 mg is a combination antibiotic containing Cefuroxime Axetil and Clavulanic Acid. It is used for the treatment of a wide range of moderate to severe bacterial infections. This combination helps improve antibacterial effectiveness, especially against bacteria that produce beta-lactamase enzymes.
Cefuroxime Axetil is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that kills bacteria by inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that prevents bacteria from destroying the antibiotic, thereby enhancing its effectiveness.
