The active ingredient, cefixime, is a semisynthetic cephalosporin. It acts on the bacterial cell wall, preventing susceptible bacteria from completing growth and division. Prepared as a dry syrup, it is intended to be made up with water as directed, so that patients aged six months and older who find tablets hard to take can receive the antibiotic.

Must not be used in patients with a known allergy to cefixime or other cephalosporins. Check with a doctor first if the patient is allergic to penicillins, as cross hypersensitivity among beta-lactam antibiotics can occur. Check with a doctor first if watery or bloody diarrhoea occurs during or after treatment. Check with a doctor first before use in patients who have had hypersensitivity reactions to other drugs.
