Biocef 250mg Tab

Cefadroxil is primarily used to treat infections caused by susceptible bacteria. It is commonly prescribed for respiratory tract infections (such as tonsillitis, bronchitis, and sinusitis), skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, and certain types of bacterial pneumonia. It is important to note that cefadroxil is not effective against viral infections like the common cold or flu.

Cefadroxil is usually taken orally in the form of tablets or capsules. It is typically prescribed to be taken once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the infection and the recommendation of the healthcare provider. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and complete the full course of treatment, even if the symptoms improve, to ensure the complete eradication of the infection.

Cefadroxil works by inhibiting the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. It does this by binding to and inhibiting the enzymes involved in cell wall synthesis, thereby weakening the bacterial cell and making it susceptible to destruction by the body's immune system.
