Fastclav 500 Tablet contains the following components:

• Cefuroxime (500 mg): This is the antibiotic component. It interferes with the growth of bacteria by disrupting their cell walls. Bacterial cells have rigid walls to maintain their structure, and Cefuroxime weakens these walls. As a result, the bacteria become vulnerable and are eventually destroyed by the immune system.
• Clavulanic Acid (125 mg): It's a beta-lactamase inhibitor. Bacteria sometimes produce enzymes called beta-lactamases that can neutralise antibiotics like cefuroxime. Clavulanic Acid prevents these enzymes from working, allowing Cefuroxime to remain effective against a broader range of bacteria.
• The pairing of cefuroxime with clavulanic acid, a β-lactamase inhibitor, offers a remedy for treating bacterial infections caused by pathogens resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics.

The storage instructions for the Fastclav 500 Tablet are as follows:

• Fastclav 500 Tablet should be stored at room temperature, at 25°C.
• Please protect it from light and moisture.
• Keep away from children.
• Do not use this medicine after the expiry date has passed.

• Avoid foods high in calcium, grapefruit, and grapefruit juice, as they may interfere with antibiotic absorption. Stick to your treatment plan for better results.
• Avoid alcohol during your antibiotic course to ensure its effectiveness.
• Avoid tobacco products, as they can hamper your overall health and slow healing.
