Aproxe-CA Suspension

Aproxe-CA Suspension belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat various bacterial infections such as pharyngitis/tonsillitis (throat infections), otitis media (ear infections), sinusitis (infection of the sinuses), community-acquired pneumonia, gonorrhoea (sexually transmitted disease), anorectal infections in women, skin, and urinary tract infections. Aproxe-CA Suspension is a combination of two antibiotics, namely: Cefpodoxime (cephalosporin antibiotic) and Clavulanic acid (beta-lactamase inhibitor). Cefpodoxime works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for their survival. Thereby, kills the bacteria. Clavulanic acid works by decreasing bacterial resistance and enhancing the activity of cefpodoxime against the bacteria. Together, Aproxe-CA Suspension helps to treat bacterial infections. Aproxe-CA Suspension is a broad-spectrum antibiotic which is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including beta-lactamase-producing strains.

Take Aproxe-CA Suspension with food. The dose and duration of Aproxe-CA Suspension can vary depending upon your condition and severity of the infection. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as diarrhoea, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Before starting Aproxe-CA Suspension, please inform your doctor if you have any allergy (against any antibiotic), kidney or liver problems. Do not take Aproxe-CA Suspension on your own as self-medication may lead to antibiotic-resistance in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections. Consult your doctor before taking Aproxe-CA Suspension if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy. Avoid taking Aproxe-CA Suspension if you are breastfeeding as Aproxe-CA Suspension may pass into breast milk. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Aproxe-CA Suspension to prevent unpleasant side-effects. Aproxe-CA Suspension may cause dizziness, so drive with caution.
