Description

CEFRAX 100 Tablet is an antibiotic manufactured by Cipla Ltd., containing Cefixime 100 mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It is prescribed for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections.

Doctors usually recommend CEFRAX 100 for conditions such as respiratory tract infections (tonsillitis, pharyngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, sinusitis), urinary tract infections, ear infections (otitis media), skin and soft tissue infections, and typhoid fever.
