CEFRINE Capsule 10's

CEFRINE CAPSULE is used in the management of severe forms of bacterial infections such as Community acquired pneumonia, Acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, Uncomplicated skin & skin structure infection, Pharyngitis, tonsillitis and sinusitis and Ear infections (such as Otitis media). It contains Cefdinir which is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It works by killing the susceptible bacteria that causes infections.

CEFRINE CAPSULE contains Cefdinir which is a powerful antibiotic. It works by binding to the bacteria cell wall and inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis, an essential component in bacterial cells that is required to keep cell wall stronger. This action, causes lysis of bacterial cell wall, disrupting cell components, followed by inactivation of the bacteria cells. Hence, Cefdinir is effective in managing severe bacterial infections.

Take CEFRINE CAPSULE as advised by your physician. It can be taken with or without meals. Swallow the medicine with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the medicine. Your doctor will decide the correct dose and duration of therapy for you based on your age, body weight and severity of infection.

Follow the dosing schedule as advised by your physician to achieve better results. Do not skip doses or stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor, even if you feel better, as it could make the medicine less effective against complete eradication of the infections.

CEFRINE CAPSULE is safe when used under careful medical supervision. It may cause mild diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache or dizziness in some individuals. Therefore, consult your doctor for advice if they trouble you.

It may take around 1-2 weeks of therapy to start noticing improvement. However, the therapy duration can take around 1 month or more based on the severity of infection.

No, cefdinir and amoxicillin are not the same, though they are both antibiotics. Cefdinir is a third-generation cephalosporin, while amoxicillin is a penicillin-class antibiotic. They work by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis but target different types of bacteria and are used to treat different infections. Cefdinir is generally used for infections that are resistant to first-line antibiotics like amoxicillin, as it has a broader spectrum of activity, particularly against certain Gram-negative bacteria.

Cefdinir is used in the management of severe forms of bacterial infections such as Community acquired pneumonia, Acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, Uncomplicated skin & skin structure infection, Pharyngitis, tonsillitis and sinusitis and Ear infections (such as Otitis media).
