Cetil-CV 500 Tablet is used to treat bacterial infections of the chest, ears, nose, throat, urinary tract and skin. It is a combination antibiotic medicine containing cefuroxime, a cephalosporin, and clavulanic acid, which helps cefuroxime work against bacteria that would otherwise resist it.
This medicine is used for infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, middle ear infections, bladder infections and cellulitis. It works only against bacteria and will not treat viral infections such as the common cold or flu. Take it with food, in the dose and for the full course prescribed by your doctor, even if you feel better early.
Getting plenty of rest and drinking enough fluids can support your recovery. Taking antibiotics only when prescribed helps reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you are allergic to cephalosporins, penicillins or any other antibiotic, or if you have kidney or liver problems or a history of colitis, and about other medicines you take. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Seek medical help straight away if you develop breathing difficulty, swelling of the face or throat, a severe skin reaction, or severe or bloody diarrhoea. Do not stop taking this medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
