Ritecef-CV Tablet

Ritecef-CV Tablet is a combination medicine commonly prescribed for the management of bacterial infections. It works by stopping the growth of harmful bacteria and preventing the spread of infection in the body.

This medicine should only be taken on medical advice. It can be taken with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time every day for consistent results. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and never stop the treatment suddenly even if symptoms improve, as this may reduce the effectiveness. In case you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next one.

Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, loose motions, or bloating. These are usually mild and go away with time, but if they persist or worsen, you should consult your doctor. Seek medical help immediately if you notice allergic reactions like rashes, swelling, or breathing problems.

Before starting this tablet, inform your doctor about any other medicines you are taking or any existing health problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use it after medical advice. Alcohol should be avoided as it may increase drowsiness. While it generally does not affect daily activities, avoid driving if you feel dizzy or unwell. Along with the medicine, adequate rest, proper diet, and hydration will support faster recovery.
