Cefolac-O 200 Tablet

Cefolac-O 200 Tablet is a prescription antibiotic medicine widely used in the treatment of bacterial infections that affect the respiratory tract, urinary tract, ear, throat, sinuses, and certain skin or digestive system infections. It combines two powerful antibiotics, cefixime and ofloxacin, which work together to stop the growth of harmful bacteria and clear infections more effectively. This combination provides broad-spectrum coverage, helping patients recover faster while reducing the risk of bacterial resistance. By targeting the root cause of infection, it helps relieve troubling symptoms like fever, cough, sore throat, breathing difficulty, ear pain, urinary discomfort, and general weakness. The medicine is generally well tolerated when taken under medical guidance, and it plays a vital role in restoring health and preventing recurrence. Completing the full prescribed course is essential for achieving best results and ensuring bacteria are completely eliminated from the body.
