About Ceftas-CL 200 Tablet

Ceftas-CL 200 Tablet belongs to a group of drugs known as 'antibiotics' used to treat various bacterial infections. It effectively treats infections of the respiratory tract (pneumonia), urinary tract, ear, nose, and throat. It is also prescribed to treat STDs (Sexually Transmitted Diseases). Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick.

Ceftas-CL 200 Tablet contains Cefixime, Cloxacillin and Lactobacillus sporogenes. Cefixime works by blocking the chemical (mucopeptides) released by the outer layer (cell wall) of the bacteria and destroying the bacterial cell wall. Cloxacillin blocks the third and last stage of synthesis of bacteria's outer layer (cell wall). Lactobacillus sporogenes help balance the number of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) due to antibiotics or infections.

You are advised to take Ceftas-CL 200 Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition. You may experience certain common side effects, such as nausea, stomach pain, indigestion, and diarrhoea in some cases.
