Ceftin
Ceftin, known generically as cefuroxime, is an antibiotic medication used to treat bacterial infections including sinusitis, ear infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections. It belongs to a class of drugs called cephalosporin antibiotics, which work by stopping the growth of bacteria.
How is this medication used?
Ceftin should be taken orally, usually twice a day (every 12 hours) with food to enhance absorption. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms disappear after a few days, to prevent the bacteria from continuing to grow.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of Ceftin may include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, unusual or unpleasant taste in the mouth, and mild skin rash. If any side effects worsen or cause concern, you should contact a healthcare professional. Serious side effects can include severe allergic reactions, persistent diarrhea, or unusual bleeding or bruising.
What are the potential interactions?
Ceftin can interact with certain medications that may either increase side effects or decrease its effectiveness. Notably, it can interact with antacids containing aluminum or magnesium, which should be taken at least an hour before or after Ceftin. Probenecid can increase the levels of ceftin in the blood, leading to more pronounced side effects. Always inform your healthcare provider of all medications you are taking to ensure safe use.
