How to use Gudcef Plus Tablet

  • Dosage: Take the prescription as directed by your healthcare professional, generally twice daily.
  • Administration: Take the tablet whole, with a glass of water. It can be taken with or without food; however, taking it with meals may lessen gastrointestinal distress.
  • Term Duration: Even if you feel better, you should complete the entire term of therapy to prevent the illness from recurring.

How Medicine Works

  • Ofloxacin: A fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, which is required for bacteria to reproduce and repair themselves. This causes bacterial death.
  • Cefpodoxime: A cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits the formation of bacterial cell walls, causing germs to weaken and eventually die.

These antibiotics work together to target diverse bacterial processes, making Gudcef Plus Tablet efficient against a wide variety of bacterial infections.
