Ceftum 125mg Suspension 50ml

Ceftum 125mg Suspension 50ml may interact with the following medicines:

• Anticoagulants such as Warfarin: Concomitant use may enhance the anticoagulant effect and increase the risk of bleeding, requiring closer monitoring of clotting parameters.
• Antigout medications such as Probenecid: Co-administration may reduce renal excretion of cefuroxime, leading to increased blood levels and a higher risk of adverse effects.
• Acid-reducing medicines such as cimetidine, proton-pump inhibitors: These may reduce gastric acidity and interfere with absorption, potentially lowering the effectiveness of Ceftum 125mg Suspension 50ml.
• Certain antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, aminoglycosides: Concurrent use may alter antibacterial effectiveness or increase the risk of toxicity, and should be undertaken only under medical supervision.

Ceftum 125mg Suspension 50ml should be used with caution in patients with:

• Gastrointestinal diseases (e.g., colitis): Antibiotic use may exacerbate diarrhoea or precipitate antibiotic-associated colitis.

The recommended dose of Ceftum 125mg Suspension 50ml is decided by your doctor based on your child’s age, body weight, severity of infection, and kidney function. Always follow the prescribed dose.

Overdose may lead to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, confusion, or convulsions, particularly in patients with kidney impairment. Seek medical attention immediately if an overdose is suspected.

If a dose is missed, give it as soon as you remember. If it is close to the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one. Do not double the dose.
