CUREXIME 100 DT Tablets contain Cefixime, a broad-spectrum third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used for the treatment of susceptible bacterial infections. The dispersible tablet can be dissolved in water before administration, making it suitable for children, adolescents, and patients who experience difficulty swallowing conventional tablets. Cefixime works by disrupting bacterial cell-wall formation, resulting in the destruction of susceptible bacteria. It is commonly prescribed for bacterial infections affecting the respiratory tract, urinary tract, and ear, nose, and throat region.
