Zifi-O 100 DT Tablet

Overview Zifi-O 100 DT Tablet

Cefixime 100mg tablets (e.g., Zifi-O 100 DT) are an antibiotic medication effective against various bacterial infections impacting children's eyes, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, musculoskeletal system, digestive tract, and urinary system. It's also indicated for treating typhoid fever in children and adolescents. Administer this medication orally to your child, ideally at the same time each day, with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, administer with food. Dosage and treatment length depend on the infection's nature and severity, your child's age, and weight; always follow your doctor's instructions precisely. If your child vomits within 30 minutes, repeat the dose; however, avoid doubling the dose if it's nearing the next scheduled dose. Do not use this medication for common cold or flu symptoms, as these are typically viral and not responsive to antibiotics. Antibiotic use in these cases is only warranted if a secondary bacterial infection is present, as determined by a physician. Minor, transient side effects like vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, stomach pain, and allergic reactions may occur, typically subsiding as your child adjusts to the medication. Persistent or troubling side effects require immediate medical attention. Ensure your doctor has a complete medical history for your child, including any prior allergies, heart conditions, blood disorders, congenital anomalies, respiratory issues, gastrointestinal problems, skin conditions, liver problems, or kidney dysfunction. This information is vital for accurate dosing and treatment planning.
