About Ceftum 500 Tablet 4

Ceftum 500 mg tablets are commonly prescribed antibiotics for treating bacterial infections. This medicine belongs to the cephalosporin class of antibiotics, known for their effectiveness against many bacterial infections. The antibiotic works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. It does this by interfering with the formation of the bacterial cell wall, ultimately destroying the bacterial cells.

Bacterial infections of the upper respiratory tract, like tonsillitis, pharyngitis, sinusitis, and otitis media, can be treated using Ceftum 500 mg tablets. This medication also treats lower respiratory tract infections like pneumonia and acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis. 

However, Ceftum 500 mg can also aid in curing urinary tract infections such as pyelonephritis, cystitis, and urethritis. It equally treats skin and soft tissue infections like cellulitis, impetigo, and wound infections.

As with any medication, Ceftum 500 mg tablets may cause side effects. Notifying your healthcare provider if you experience any severe or persistent side effects is essential.
