Sir can taxim o dt100 tab be given to 6 year child in extraoral swelling infection dental
its not the drug of choice . cefixime is not the answer to every disease which presents to us . in skin n soft tissue infections . amoxiclav should b the drug of choice . make a list of antibiotics u r using commonly . n go through them in detail . then u will understand which bullet to fire in which disease .
Yes. But the choice would be Cephalexin / amoxiclav-cloxacillin/ Erythromycin/amoxiclav
Yes It can be given Cefixime have good safety profile and high therapeutic window For example for Typhoid , recommended dose of Cefixime of 20 mg/kg/day Average weight of 6 yrs old child is 20 kg So dose of Cefixime for treatment of Typhoid in 6 yrs old child will be 400 mg/day or 200 mg two times a day Therefore 100 mg Cefixime two times a day can be safely given to 6 year old child
Yes it can be used but better will be Tab Clavum 375 bd , Tab Metrogyl 200 bd
No cefixime is a poor choice for oral infections. Give gram positive coverage like Amoxicillin+clavulanic acid and anaerobic coverage like metronidazole
