Cefixime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic prescribed for moderate to severe bacterial infections. It targets and kills infection-causing bacteria, helping reduce symptoms like fever, sore throat, pain, and pus formation. Cefixime is commonly used in conditions like respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, typhoid fever, ENT infections, and skin infections. It should only be taken on a doctor’s prescription and for the full course to prevent antibiotic resistance.
