Taxim-O Forte Dry Syrup contains cefixime (100 mg). Here's how this active ingredient works:

• Inhibition of Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis: Cefixime inhibits the building of bacterial cell walls. It achieves this by binding to certain proteins called penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) inside the bacterial cell wall. These proteins are crucial in forming cross-links between molecules in the cell wall.
• Prevention of Bacterial Growth: By disrupting the cell wall structure, cefixime weakens the bacterial cells causing them to break open or 'lyse'. This prevents the bacteria from growing and multiplying further.

Remember to always consult a doctor before giving any medication to your child.

• Store Taxim-O Forte Dry Syrup at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.
• Keep it in a tightly closed container to protect from air and moisture.

• If your child is battling an infection managed by Taxim-O Forte Dry Syrup, ensure they drink plenty of fluids. This helps to prevent dehydration, especially if diarrhoea is a side effect.
• Maintain a balanced diet for your child. Proper nutrition supports their immune system, helping their body fight off bacterial infections more effectively.
