Cefexol 400mg Capsule – Cefixime Third-Generation Cephalosporin Antibiotic
Cefexol 400mg Capsule contains Cefixime 400mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that treats a broad range of bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell-wall synthesis, making it highly effective against infections of the respiratory tract (pneumonia, acute bronchitis), urinary tract (UTI), ears (otitis media), throat (pharyngitis, tonsillitis), and skin.
Cefixime is not effective against viral infections such as influenza or the common cold. Always complete the full prescribed course — stopping early, even when symptoms improve, risks bacterial resistance and relapse. Dosage and duration must be determined by a physician.
Key Uses
- Community-acquired pneumonia and acute bronchitis
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs) in adults and children
- Otitis media (ear infections)
- Pharyngitis and tonsillitis
- Uncomplicated gonorrhoea (as directed by physician)

FAQs
What infections does Cefexol 400mg treat?
It treats bacterial respiratory infections (pneumonia, bronchitis), UTIs, ear infections (otitis media), and pharyngitis/tonsillitis.
Why must I complete the full course?
Stopping antibiotic treatment early — even when you feel better — leaves resistant bacteria alive and can cause relapse or treatment failure.
Can I take Cefexol for flu or a cold?
No. Cefixime targets bacteria only; viral infections like influenza and common cold do not respond to antibiotics.
Are there side effects?
Common effects include diarrhoea, nausea, and abdominal discomfort. Seek medical advice for severe allergic reactions (rash, difficulty breathing).
Do I need a prescription?
Yes. Cefexol 400mg is a prescription-only antibiotic — share your script at sales@derma.pk when ordering.
