CFX-500 contains Cefuroxime Axetil, a broad-spectrum second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. Cefuroxime Axetil is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections (such as bronchitis and pneumonia), urinary tract infections, skin infections, and Lyme disease. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, which ultimately leads to the death of the bacteria. The standard dosage for CFX-500 is typically one tablet (500 mg) taken orally twice a day, with or without food. It is important to take the medication at evenly spaced intervals to maintain consistent levels of the drug in the body. Patients are advised to complete the full course of the antibiotic, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished, to prevent the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Common side effects of CFX-500 include gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Some individuals may also experience allergic reactions, ranging from mild rashes to more severe anaphylactic responses, which require immediate medical attention.
