Suprax DT (active ingredient: cefixime) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Bacterial Infections: Suprax DT is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including infections of the respiratory tract, urinary tract, and ears (otitis media).
  2. Gonorrhea: It is also indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea, a sexually transmitted infection caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Suprax DT belongs to a class of drugs known as cephalosporin antibiotics, which work by interfering with the formation of the bacterial cell wall, ultimately leading to the death of the bacteria.

Cefixime comes in Dispersible Tablets and is typically taken orally and dissolved in water before being consumed. The tablets should not be chewed, broken, or crushed, but should be swallowed whole. To avoid stomach upset, it is recommended to take the medication with food.

The dosage of Cefixime Dispersible Tablets can vary based on the specific condition being treated, age, and weight of the patient. Follow the instructions provided by the prescribing doctor and do not exceed the recommended dose.

Some common dosages for Cefixime Dispersible Tablets include:

  • Adults and children over 12 years and weighing more than 50 kilograms (kg): 400 milligrams (mg) once a day or 200 mg every 12 hours
  • Children under 12 years: The dosage is based on the weight of the child and is determined by the prescribing doctor.

Take the full course of treatment even if symptoms disappear sooner to ensure the bacteria causing the infection are eliminated. If you have further questions about how to use Cefixime Dispersible Tablets, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider.
