Product Details


Description

Cefpodoxime is a third generation semi-synthetic Cephalosporin, exhibits activity against several Gram positive as well as Gram negative microorganisms. This compound is also stable in beta lactamase environment. Cefpodoxime exhibits exceptional activity against methicillin susceptible Staphylococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria spp. and Moraxella catarrhalis. Clavulanic acid is a natural inhibitor of beta lactamase which are produced by Streptomyces clavuligerus. It binds to beta lactamase moieties and inactivates them, thus restricting the Cefpodoxime destruction.

Cefpodoxime is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Cephalosporins.

Cefpodoxime is well tolerated. Most common gastrointestinal adverse effects are diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

US FDA pregnancy category of Cefpodoxime & Clavulanic Acid is B. There are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. Cefpodoxime have been shown to be excreted in human milk. So, caution should be exercised when Cefpodoxime is administered to a nursing woman.

Cefpodoxime should be administered with caution to patients receiving concurrent treatment with diuretics.
