Description
Zinnat Suspension 125 mg/5 ml is a liquid antibiotic formulation containing cefuroxime axetil, used to treat bacterial infections, particularly in children who may have difficulty swallowing tablets. It is commonly prescribed for respiratory tract infections, ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections.
Cefuroxime axetil belongs to the second-generation cephalosporin class of antibiotics. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, causing bacteria to die.
The suspension is typically administered orally, with the dosage based on the child’s weight and the severity of the infection. It is usually given twice daily. The medication should be measured accurately using the dosing device provided.
Common side effects include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and allergic reactions such as rash. Serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention.
The suspension should be stored in a cool, dry place and well shaken before use. Once reconstituted, it is usually kept in the refrigerator and used within the timeframe specified by the manufacturer.
It is important to complete the full prescribed course to avoid resistance and to use the medication under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
