Cefponor 100 Dry Syrup contains Cefpodoxime 100 mg. It comes in a pack of 30ml.

The Cefpodoxime in this syrup prevents bacteria from completing their cell walls. Without a stable wall the bacterial cells collapse, which allows the infection caused by sensitive organisms to settle. Like other antibiotics, it has no effect on illnesses caused by viruses.

Must not be used by patients with a known allergy to cefpodoxime or to the cephalosporin group of antibiotics. Check with a doctor first if the patient is allergic to penicillin, as cross-reaction between beta-lactam antibiotics can occur. Check with a doctor first if there is a history of allergy to other drugs or of antibiotic-related diarrhoea. Must be stopped and medical help sought if an allergic reaction occurs.
