GRAMOCEF 0 200 DT TAB

About

GRAMOCEF 0 200 DT TAB contains Cefixime 200mg as a dispersible tablet, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. Cefixime works by interfering with the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacterial survival, leading to the death of the bacteria. It is highly effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including many strains that produce beta-lactamase enzymes, which would otherwise inactivate other antibiotics. The dispersible tablet formulation is designed for ease of administration, particularly for patients who have difficulty swallowing, ensuring accurate dosing and improved patient compliance. This makes it a versatile and effective option for treating various bacterial infections.
