Indications

Cefzil (cefprozil), classified as a cephalosporin antibiotic, is a valuable medication that effectively combats an extensive range of bacterial infections. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of bacterial growth. Note that Cefzil (cefprozil) is only effective against bacterial infections and does not have any antiviral properties, hence cannot be used to treat viral infections such as the common cold or flu. The misuse Cefzil (cefprozil) can lead to a reduced efficacy in future infections. Thus, it is imperative to use antibiotics judiciously and only when they are absolutely necessary.

Uses and Dosage

Take Cefzil (cefprozil) orally as prescribed by your doctor, typically once or twice per day. If you experience stomach discomfort, it is permissible to consume the medication with food. The dosage of Cefzil (cefprozil) is based on the severity of your medical condition and your response to therapy. In children, the dose is also dependent on their weight.

To avoid missing a dose, take Cefzil (cefprozil) at evenly spaced intervals. To assist with remembering, take Cefzil (cefprozil) at the same time each day.

Continue taking Cefzil (cefprozil) until the full-prescribed amount is completed, even if symptoms subside after a few days. Halting Cefzil (cefprozil) prematurely may enable bacteria to persist, potentially resulting in a relapse of the infection.

If your condition worsens or persists, inform your physician.

Avoid using anti-diarrhea or opioid products, as they may exacerbate your symptoms.
