Uses

Cefixime is used to treat bacterial infections.

How it Works

How Cefixime works Cefixime is an antibiotic that kills bacteria by preventing them from forming the protective covering (cell wall) necessary for their survival.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Cefixime include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, loose stools, flatulence, abdominal pain, and dyspepsia.

Expert Advice

  • Do not skip any doses and ensure you complete the full course of treatment, even if you start to feel better.
  • Stopping the medication early may make the infection more difficult to treat.
  • Take Cefixime with food to minimize the risk of an upset stomach.
  • Diarrhea may occur as a side effect but should resolve once your course is complete.
  • Inform your doctor if diarrhea persists or if you notice blood in your stools.

If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one. Do not double the dose.
Cefixime is effective when taken as prescribed. Do not discontinue use prematurely, as this may lead to a return or worsening of symptoms.
Cefixime is safe for the kidneys when used alone. However, it may increase kidney damage if used with certain other antibiotics. Take it only as prescribed.
Contact your doctor if you do not feel better after completing the treatment or if your symptoms worsen during use.
Cefixime is typically prescribed for 7-14 days. Follow your doctor's instructions for the full treatment duration.
