About Aticef 375 Mg Tablet
Aticef 375 Mg Tablet belongs to the group of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.
Aticef 375 Mg Tablet contains Ampicillin and Sulbactam. Ampicillin is a penicillin antibiotic. It has bactericidal action (kills bacteria). It works by preventing the formation of the cell wall (the outer protective layer of bacteria, which is essential for its survival) by preventing protein synthesis. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It broadens the spectrum of antibacterial activity by inhibiting the action of beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by bacteria that can destroy antibiotics. Aticef 375 Mg Tablet is recommended for only bacterial infections and doesn’t treat viral infections.

Aticef 375 Mg Tablet should not be given to people with infectious mononucleosis (viral infection with a sore throat and fever) and colitis (inflammation of the intestine). It should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment.

Aticef 375 Mg Tablet should be used with caution in children, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers and elderly people.
