• Others: Hypersensitivity reactions which usually subside upon discontinuation of therapy; infrequent and reversible hematological changes; elevation of serum amylase. Increase in prothrombin time has been reported in few patients.

PRECAUTIONS:

• Cephalosporins should be given with caution to penicillin sensitive patients, as there is some evidence of partial cross-allergenicity between the penicillin’s and cephalosporins.
• Cefixime should be administered with caution in patients with markedly impaired renal function.
• Treatment with broad spectrum antibiotics alters the normal flora of the colon and may permit overgrowth of clostridia. Pseudomembranous colitis is associated with the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics (including macrolides, semi-synthetic penicillin’s, lincosamides and cephalosporin’s); it is therefore important to consider its diagnosis in patients who develop diarrhea in association with the use of antibiotics. Symptoms of pseudomembranous colitis may occur during or after antibiotic treatment.
• Broad-spectrum antibiotics such as cefixime should be prescribed with caution in individuals with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis.

WHEN NOT TO USE:

Cefiget-DS 250mg/5ml is contraindicated in:

• Patients with hypersensitivity to any component of this medication.
• Patients with known allergy to the cephalosporin group of antibiotics.
• Children less than six months old as safety and efficacy of cefixime in these patients have not been established

INTERACTIONS:

Anticoagulants:  Care should be exercised in patients receiving anticoagulants and cefixime concomitantly due to the possibility that cefixime may increase prothrombin time. Carbamazepine: Elevated carbamazepine levels have been reported, when cefexime is administered concomitantly. Drug monitoring may be of assistance in detecting alterations in carbamazepine plasma concentrations

DOSE:

The recommended adult dose of Cefiget-DS 250mg/5ml is 200 - 400mg daily according to the severity of infection, given either as a single dose or in two divided doses
