Cefroxym 500mg Tablets (Cefuroxime) - 10 Tablets - Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic for Bacterial Infections

Cefroxym 500mg Tablets, containing the active ingredient Cefuroxime, are a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. This second-generation cephalosporin is highly effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those causing infections in the respiratory tract, skin, and urinary tract.

Cefroxym works by preventing bacteria from synthesizing their cell walls, causing the bacterial cells to break down and die. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as bronchitis, sinusitis, and pneumonia, as well as for skin infections and urinary tract infections. This medication should only be used when prescribed by a healthcare professional and should not be used for viral infections like the common cold.
