About this product

Overview

Slate 500mg Capsule is a pharmaceutical formulation that contains cefaclor, which is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic.

The dosage of Slate 500mg Capsule may vary depending on the type and severity of the infection, as well as the individual’s age, weight, and renal function.

  3. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider before using Slate 500mg Capsule if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
