Cefixime 200mg + Potassium Clavulanate 125mg Tablets
SKU GME632Product Introduction
Cefixime with clavulanic acid combines a cephalosporin antibiotic and a beta-lactamase inhibitor for selected susceptible bacterial infections. The added inhibitor does not overcome every mechanism of bacterial resistance.
How to use
Swallow the tablets with food and water at consistent times to improve gastrointestinal tolerability. Complete the selected course; persistent or worsening symptoms need reassessment rather than an independently extended course.
How it works
Cefixime inhibits cell-wall synthesis; clavulanate inhibits susceptible beta-lactamase enzymes that can inactivate certain beta-lactam antibiotics.
Side effects
Diarrhoea, nausea, abdominal discomfort, rash and, rarely, liver injury may occur.
Important information
Tell your doctor about serious beta-lactam allergy, kidney impairment and any previous clavulanate-related jaundice or hepatic dysfunction.
Uses
- Selected susceptible bacterial infections where cefixime-clavulanate is appropriate
Benefits
May protect antibiotic activity against some beta-lactamase-producing bacteria, depending on the organism.
Does clavulanate kill all resistant bacteria?
No. Its effect depends on the enzyme and other resistance mechanisms.
Can it replace amoxicillin-clavulanate automatically?
No. The antibiotic component and spectrum are different.
What if I previously developed jaundice with co-amoxiclav?
Tell the prescriber before taking another clavulanate-containing product.
Can it treat viral sore throat?
No. A bacterial indication must be established.
Is diarrhoea always harmless?
No. Severe, persistent or bloody diarrhoea needs assessment.
Does kidney disease affect the prescription?
Yes. The clinician may need to modify exposure to the antibiotic.
Why might a sensitivity test matter?
It helps determine whether the combination is appropriate for the organism.
Can I stop when fever settles?
Follow the prescribed course; improvement alone does not establish that treatment is complete.
