About this product

Overview

Zanxim 100mg Syrup is an oral antibiotic formulation containing Cefixime, a third-generation cephalosporin, renowned for its effectiveness against a wide range of bacterial infections. This syrup is specifically designed for ease of use, particularly in children who may have difficulty swallowing tablets. Each 5ml of syrup delivers 100mg of Cefixime, ensuring accurate dosing and potent antibacterial action.

Uses

Zanxim 100mg Syrup is indicated for the treatment of various bacterial infections including:

  • Otitis media: Infections of the middle ear.
  • Pharyngitis and tonsillitis: Infections of the throat and tonsils caused by bacteria.
  • Bronchitis: Infection of the airways in the lungs.
  • Pneumonia: Bacterial infection of the lungs.
  • Urinary tract infections: Infections of the urinary system.
  • Gonorrhea: A sexually transmitted bacterial infection.

Side Effects

While generally safe and effective when used as directed, some users of Zanxim 100mg Syrup may experience side effects, such as:

  • Gastrointestinal disturbances: Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
  • Allergic reactions: Rash, itching, or swelling, particularly of the face, tongue, or throat.
  • Rarely, changes in blood clotting and liver function tests.

Precautions

To ensure safe use of Zanxim 100mg Syrup, consider the following precautions:

  • Allergy: Avoid if there is a known allergy to Cefixime or any other cephalosporin antibiotics.
  • Kidney function: Patients with renal impairment should use this medication with caution; dose adjustments may be necessary.
  • Anticoagulant therapy: Cefixime may increase the anticoagulant effect of drugs like warfarin.

When Not to Use

Zanxim 100mg Syrup should not be used in patients who:

  • Have a known hypersensitivity to Cefixime or any component of the formulation.
  • Have a history of severe reactions to penicillins or other cephalosporins due to the potential for cross-reactivity.
