Phexin Drops 10 ml

Phexin Drops belongs to the group of antibiotics called cephalosporin, used to treat various bacterial infections of the nose, lungs, ear, bones, joints, skin, urinary tract, prostate gland, and reproductive system. Besides this, Phexin Drops is also used to treat dental infections. Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and cause illness. Phexin Drops does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.

Phexin Drops contains Cephalexin, which is bactericidal in nature. It works by blocking enzymes responsible for producing peptidoglycan, a crucial component of the bacterial cell wall. Thus, it kills the bacteria and helps in treating and preventing the spread of infections.

The dose and duration of Phexin Drops can vary depending on your condition and the severity of the infection. Additionally, it is recommended to complete the entire course of medicine, even if you feel better, as it is an antibiotic, and discontinuing it prematurely may lead to a severe infection and antibiotic resistance. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, stomach pain, and skin rashes. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Before starting Phexin Drops, please inform your doctor if you have any allergies (to any antibiotic), kidney, or liver problems. Do not take Phexin Drops on your own, as self-medication may lead to antibiotic resistance, in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections. Avoid taking Phexin Drops if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by a doctor. Phexin Drops should not be given to children below 5 years.
