Cefim-3 DS Suspension contains Cefixime Trihydrate (200 mg/5 ml), a double-strength (DS) third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic formulated for children and adults who require a liquid dosage form. It is highly effective against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, making it suitable for treating respiratory tract infections, ear infections, throat infections, urinary tract infections, and skin infections.
Cefixime works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, which weakens the bacterial wall, leading to bacterial death and rapid infection resolution. The DS formulation provides higher potency per dose, allowing for smaller volume administration and improved patient compliance, especially for pediatric patients.
