Xoxe-CV Tablet

Introduction

Xoxe-CV Tablet is a combination medication containing Cefixime (200mg) and Clavulanic acid (125mg), which are commonly used to treat bacterial infections. Cefixime is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that fights against bacterial infections, while Clavulanic acid helps prevent bacteria from becoming resistant to Cefixime. This combination makes Xoxe-CV effective against a wide range of bacterial infections, providing fast relief and preventing the infection from spreading further.

Uses of Xoxe-CV Tablet

• Treatment of respiratory tract infections (bronchitis, pneumonia)
• Management of urinary tract infections (UTIs)
• Ear infections (Otitis media)
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Sinus infections (Sinusitis)
• Gastrointestinal infections like enteritis

How Xoxe-CV Tablet works

Xoxe-CV Tablet works by combining the actions of Cefixime and Clavulanic acid. Cefixime, a cephalosporin antibiotic, kills bacteria by interfering with their cell wall formation. Clavulanic acid, on the other hand, inhibits beta-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria, allowing Cefixime to work effectively even against those bacteria that are typically resistant to antibiotics.
