JEYTEM 500

Description

Jeytem-500 by Ellanjey is a potent, broad-spectrum oral antibiotic containing Cefuroxime Axetil I.P. equivalent to Cefuroxime 500 mg. Cefuroxime Axetil is a second-generation oral cephalosporin prodrug that is hydrolyzed in the intestinal mucosa to release active Cefuroxime. The 500 mg strength represents the higher dose formulation, reserved for more severe infections, infections caused by less susceptible organisms, or for patients requiring intensified therapy.

Key Benefits:

• Second-generation cephalosporin – Broader coverage than first-generation agents

• Higher potency (500mg) – Reserved for moderate to severe infections

• Beta-lactamase stable – Effective against many resistant bacteria

• Extended spectrum – Active against H. influenzae, M. catarrhalis, E. coli, and Klebsiella

• Excellent tissue penetration – High concentrations in respiratory, ENT & urinary tracts
