Exfaro 300 Tablet 6

Exfaro 300 Tablet is used for managing community-acquired pneumonia, acute pyelonephritis, complicated urinary tract infections, and uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections.

Here are the instructions to follow while taking Exfaro 300 Tablet:

• Swallow the tablet whole with water.

• Avoid crushing, chewing or breaking the tablet as it can affect how the medicine works.

• Try to take your medicine at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your blood.

• In case you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it's nearly time for your next dose.

• Never take two doses together to make up for a missed one.

• Always consult your doctor for specific advice on using this medicine.

Exfaro 300 Tablet is taken orally.

Exfaro 300 Tablet contains faropenem (300 mg). Here's how it works:

• Inhibits Cell Wall Synthesis: Faropenem disrupts the creation of the bacterial cell wall by blocking penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). These are essential for making peptidoglycan, a key component of the bacterial cell wall.

• Broad Spectrum Activity: Faropenem acts against a wide range of bacteria including gram-positive, gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria.

• Resistance to Beta-lactamases: Faropenem remains effective even against many resistant bacteria that produce beta-lactamases which often make antibiotics less effective.

Remember though, faropenem has limited activity against specific bacteria like Pseudomonas aeruginosa, methicillin-resistant staphylococci, and enterococci.

• Store Exfaro 300 Tablet in a cool, dry place where the temperature is below 25°C.

• Protect it from light and moisture.

• Always keep this medicine in its original packaging.

• Keep it out of reach from children and pets.

• Use it before the expiry date mentioned on the package.

• If you have a urinary tract infection, increase your fluid intake. Drinking more water can help dilute your urine and ensure that you urinate more frequently, flushing bacteria out of your urinary system.

• For those managing lung infections like pneumonia, refrain from smoking. Smoking damages your lungs and can worsen your condition or delay recovery.
