How Does CefuBees-500 Work?

CefuBees-500 contains Cefuroxime Axetil, an oral prodrug of Cefuroxime.

Cefuroxime in CefuBees-500

Cefuroxime belongs to the cephalosporin class of antibacterial medicines. It works by interfering with bacterial cell-wall synthesis, thereby inhibiting the growth of susceptible bacteria.

CefuBees-500 Antibacterial Action

After administration, Cefuroxime Axetil is converted to active Cefuroxime. The active antibacterial interferes with bacterial cell-wall formation, helping control susceptible bacterial infections.

CefuBees-500 Dosage and Administration

The dosage and duration of CefuBees-500 should be determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the type and severity of infection, patient characteristics, kidney function and other clinical factors.

• Take CefuBees-500 exactly as prescribed.
• Swallow the tablet as directed.
• Follow the prescribed dosing schedule.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose.
• Complete the prescribed course unless your doctor advises otherwise.
