Aptocef-500
An Outstanding Antibiotic, Never Disappointed

Composition : Cefuroxime Axetil 500mg.

Form : Tablets / Pack : 10's / Type : ALU-ALU

Description : An enteral second-generation cephalosporin, active against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms and it is highly stable in the presence of beta-lactamases of certain gram-negative bacteria. The bactericidal action of cefuroxime results from inhibition of cell-wall synthesis. The perioperative use of cefuroxime has also been effective during open heart surgery for surgical patients in whom infections at the operative site would present a serious risk. For these patients it is recommended that therapy with cefuroxime be continued for at least 48 hours after the surgical procedure ends. Cefuroxime should usually be given one-half to 1 hour before the operation to allow sufficient time to achieve effective antibiotic concentrations in the wound tissues during the procedure.
