CUREXIME 50 DT Tablets contain Cefixime, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used for the treatment of susceptible bacterial infections. Its dispersible formulation is designed for easier administration in children and patients who experience difficulty swallowing conventional tablets. Cefixime works by inhibiting bacterial cell-wall synthesis, which weakens and destroys susceptible bacteria.
