Cefotec CV Dry Syrup (Cefpodoxime Proxetil 100 mg + Clavulanic  Acid 62.50 mg) is utilized to treat pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and/or pharyngotonsillitis.

• Urinary tract infection : An contamination in any portion of your urinary framework- the kidneys, bladder, ureters, or urethra is called urinary tract disease (UTI). UTIs are the most common diseases in people and ladies are at more prominent hazard of getting this disease. UTIs are caused by microscopic organisms and in a few cases, infections or organisms.

MECHANISM OF ACTION 

Cefpodoxime Proxetil : This is a prodrug that converts into its active form, cefpodoxime, after absorption. Cefpodoxime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis. It binds to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) in the bacterial cell wall, preventing the formation of cross-links in the peptidoglycan layer. This disruption weakens the cell wall, leading to bacterial cell lysis and death.

Clavulanic Acid : This is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. Beta-lactamase enzymes produced by certain bacteria can inactivate many beta-lactam antibiotics, including cephalosporins, rendering them ineffective. Clavulanic acid binds to and inhibits these beta-lactamase enzymes, protecting cefpodoxime from degradation. This enhances the antibiotic's effectiveness against beta-lactamase-producing bacteria, extending its spectrum of activity and improving its ability to treat bacterial infections.
