Sypod CV Dry Syrup

Sypod CV Dry Syrup is a combination of Cefpodoxime Proxetil (50mg) and Clavulanic Acid (31.25mg). This medication is an antibiotic used to treat a range of bacterial infections. It works effectively by combating the bacteria causing the infection. The combination of Cefpodoxime, a cephalosporin antibiotic, and Clavulanic Acid, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, ensures that the medication is effective against resistant bacteria and helps prevent the breakdown of Cefpodoxime by bacterial enzymes.

Uses of Sypod CV Dry Syrup

Sypod CV Dry Syrup is typically prescribed for:

• Infections of the respiratory tract such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and sinusitis
• Ear infections (otitis media)
• Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
• Infections of the skin and soft tissues

How Sypod CV Dry Syrup Works

Cefpodoxime Proxetil works by inhibiting the bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial cell death. Clavulanic Acid works by inhibiting beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by certain bacteria that could render Cefpodoxime ineffective. Together, they enhance the antibiotic's ability to fight resistant bacteria.
