About this product

Overview

M-Span 400mg Capsule contains cefixime, a potent antibiotic from the cephalosporin class. Cefixime is adept at targeting a broad spectrum of bacteria by impeding their cell wall synthesis, which ultimately leads to bacterial cell demise. It is extensively utilized in treating a variety of bacterial infections, encompassing respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, otitis media, and certain sexually transmitted infections.

Uses

M-Span 400mg Capsule is primarily indicated for the treatment of the following conditions:

  1. Respiratory Tract Infections: It effectively addresses bacterial infections of the upper respiratory tract, such as pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis.
  2. Urinary Tract Infections: M-Span Capsule is efficacious in managing uncomplicated urinary tract infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
  3. Otitis Media: It can be prescribed for treating acute otitis media, an infection affecting the middle ear.
  4. Sexually Transmitted Infections: Cefixime is sometimes employed to treat specific sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea, particularly in cases of antibiotic resistance.

Dosage

The dosage of M-Span 400mg Capsule may vary based on the type and severity of the infection, as well as individual patient factors. Typically, it is administered orally, with the dosing frequency and duration determined by a healthcare provider based on the specific infection being addressed.

Side Effects

Though generally well-tolerated, M-Span 400mg Capsule may induce some side effects, including:

  1. Gastrointestinal Upset: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain may manifest in some individuals.
  2. Allergic Reactions: Infrequently, cefixime may trigger allergic reactions such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Serious allergic reactions necessitate immediate medical attention.
  3. Superinfection: Prolonged or repeated usage of antibiotics like cefixime may pave the way for the overgrowth of non-susceptible bacteria or fungi, leading to superinfection. Signs of superinfection may include new or worsening symptoms.

Precautions

To ensure the safe and effective use of M-Span 400mg Capsule, it is imperative to consider the following precautions:

  1. Drug Interactions: Cefixime may interact with certain medications, including antacids containing aluminum, magnesium, or calcium, which can impede its absorption. Administering cefixime and antacids should be separated by at least two hours.
  2. Renal Impairment: Patients with impaired renal function may necessitate dosage adjustments, as cefixime is predominantly excreted by the kidneys. Close monitoring of renal function is advisable during treatment.
  3. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: While the safety of cefixime during pregnancy or breastfeeding is not definitively established, caution is advised when considering its use in pregnant or breastfeeding women. The potential risks and benefits should be carefully weighed.

Contraindications

M-Span 400mg Capsule is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to cefixime or any constituents of the capsule. It should not be utilized in patients with a history of severe allergic reactions to cephalosporin antibiotics.
