More Information
How quickly does Cefixime start working?
Most patients begin to feel relief from symptoms within 24-48 hours of taking their first dose. However, it's crucial to complete the entire prescribed course to ensure the infection is fully eliminated and prevent antibiotic resistance.
Can I take Cefixime with other medications?
Always inform your doctor about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you're taking. Some medications may interact with Cefixime, particularly blood thinners and certain antacids. Your healthcare provider will adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Never take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Are there any side effects I should watch for?
Common side effects include mild stomach upset, diarrhea, or headache. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe diarrhea, allergic reactions, or unusual symptoms. Most side effects are mild and resolve on their own.
