Monocef-O CV 50/31.25 Dry Syrup

Description

Product Description

This dry syrup is a paediatric antibiotic formulated for treating bacterial infections in children. When reconstituted with water, it becomes a liquid medicine that can be easily given to children. It contains cefpodoxime, an antibiotic that destroys bacterial cell walls, and clavulanic acid, which inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria. This combination ensures higher effectiveness, especially against bacteria that usually resist antibiotics.
