  Cefrine general information
  What is Cefrine used for?
  Harmful bacteria can invade many parts of the body. They can multiply rapidly, causing a range of bacterial infections, including superficial skin infections, internal infections of the lungs and respiratory tract, and infections of the genitourinary system. Most contagious bacterial infections are transmitted by inhaling bacteria when an infected person coughs or sneezes near you, by direct physical contact, or through broken skin or an open wound.
  Often the body’s immune system can prevent a severe bacterial disease from developing. However, if harmful bacteria multiply rapidly and spread, the immune system may be overwhelmed. This is when antibiotics are needed to prevent a bacterial infection from developing into a serious disease.
  Many symptoms of a bacterial infection are caused by the immune system attempting to kill off the invading pathogen. These include fever, feeling unwell and tired, headache, nausea, inflammation (redness, swelling and pain). Swollen lymph nodes in the neck, in the armpits and in the groin are further signs that the immune system is actively fighting the infection.
  Cefrine capsules 300mg are a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat various mild to moderate common infections caused by a bacteria known to be susceptible to this antibiotic.
  Respiratory infections
  Cefrine capsules 300mg are used to treat infections of the chest, throat, ear and sinuses.
  Bacterial infections of the upper respiratory tract include pharyngitis, which is inflammation of the pharynx at the back of the throat. Tonsillitis is infection of the tonsils, which are patches of lymph node tissue at the back of the throat. These infections are both caused by Streptococcus pyogenes. Acute maxillary sinusitis, is infection of the sinuses or nasal passages causing inflammation that makes it difficult to breathe. Otitis media is infection of the middle ear.
  Lower respiratory tract infections include bronchitis (infection of the bronchioles or airways), and Cefrine is used to treat and prevent exacerbations (worsening) of bronchitis. Pneumonia is an infection of the alveoli (air sacs of the lungs), and Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAD), particularly in children, is a common respiratory disease that sends people to hospital. Cefrine capsules 300mg are effective against bacteria known to cause pneumonia, which include Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Staphylococcus aureus.
  Skin and soft tissue infections
  Cellulitis is an infection that begins when the skin is broken, and therefore, the bacteria can invade the deeper layers of the skin and underlying soft tissue, causing inflammation and swelling, which makes you feel generally unwell. It can spread rapidly and become life-threatening if not treated. Impetigo is a superficial skin infection causing sores that usually begin with small blisters that break and weep, and these are very contagious so that the infection is easily spread. A boil (furunculus) is an infection around a hair follicle that causes a pus-filled swelling; a large boil is called an abscess.
  How does Cefrine work?
  Cefrine capsules 300mg contain cefdinir, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, belonging to a beta-lactam subgroup of antibiotics (which include penicillins). Cefrine is used to treat a range of bacterial infections in different parts of the body.
  Cefdinir in Cefrine capsules 300mg works by attaching to the penicillin-binding proteins on the bacterial cell wall. These proteins are enzymes that are essential for the synthesis of the peptidoglycan component of the bacterial cell wall. The peptidoglycan layer of the bacterial cell wall is critical to the structural integrity of the bacterial cell. Cefdinir blocks the formation of the bacterial cell wall in susceptible bacteria and kills the bacteria.
  Unlike other beta-lactam antibiotics like penicillins, cephalosporins are less susceptible to destruction by beta-lactamase that is found in some resistant bacteria. Cefdinir is not destroyed by bacterial beta-lactamase and is, therefore, active against many ampicillin-resistant or amoxycillin-resistant strains.
  Cefdinir in Cefrine capsules 300mg is effective against a wide range of common bacteria found in general practice and in hospitals including: Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus (including penicillinase-producing strains and non-resistant strains) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (penicillin-susceptible strains only), Haemophilus influenzae; Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli Moraxella catarrhalis, among others.
  What does Cefrine contain?

These may include probenecid for gout, metformin for diabetes, oral contraceptives, anticoagulants like warfarin, antacids for indigestion (should be taken 2 hours before or after).
