OZIX 250MG SYRUP 60ML

Ozix 250mg Syrup 60ML is an oral medication that contains cefadroxil, which is a cephalosporin antibiotic. It is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, and certain types of ear infections. Cefadroxil works by inhibiting the growth and spread of bacteria, helping to alleviate symptoms and resolve the infection.

Ozix 250mg Syrup is available in a 60ml bottle and is taken orally. It is commonly prescribed for both adults and children, with the dosage determined based on the severity of the infection and the individual’s age.

Side Effects:

1. Gastrointestinal Upset: The most common side effects of Ozix 250mg Syrup include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort. These side effects are generally mild and temporary. Taking the medication with food can help reduce gastrointestinal upset.
2. Allergic Reactions: Although rare, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to cefadroxil. Signs of an allergic reaction may include rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or difficulty breathing. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these symptoms.
3. Superinfection: Treatment with antibiotics, including cefadroxil, can sometimes lead to a secondary infection known as a superinfection. This occurs when the medication kills off the normal bacteria in the body, allowing other resistant bacteria or fungi to grow. If you develop symptoms such as persistent diarrhea, oral thrush, or vaginal yeast infection, inform your healthcare provider.
4. Other Side Effects: Less common side effects of cefadroxil may include headache, dizziness, fatigue, joint pain, or changes in taste. If these side effects persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider.

3. Kidney Impairment: Individuals with severe kidney impairment or a history of kidney disease should use cefadroxil with caution. Dose adjustments may be necessary, and regular monitoring of kidney function may be required.
4. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The safety of cefadroxil during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established. Consult with a healthcare professional before using Ozix 250mg Syrup if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
