Adcef Suspension Substitute

Adcef Suspension contains Cefdinir, an antibiotic that works by interfering with the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) that is necessary for their survival. Thereby damages the bacterial cell wall and kills bacteria.

You are not recommended to take Adcef Suspension with probenecid (used to lower high uric acid levels) as it may increase the levels of Adcef Suspension in blood and increase the risk of adverse effects such as diarrhoea, kidney problems, vomiting and nausea. However, please consult your doctor before taking Adcef Suspension with other medicines.

Adcef Suspension may cause diarrhoea as a common side effect. However, if the condition persists, worsens or if you notice blood or mucus in stools, avoid taking Adcef Suspension and consult a doctor immediately.

Adcef Suspension may interfere with urine test (for sugar) and Coomb’s test (blood test) giving false-positive results. Therefore, if you are about to undergo any laboratory tests, inform your doctor or lab technician that you are taking Adcef Suspension.

Adcef Suspension is not used to treat viral infections. Adcef Suspension is an antibiotic which is used to treat only bacterial infections.
