Cefex Capsules BP 250 mg are antibiotic capsules containing 250 mg of cefalexin.

Cefex Capsules BP 250 mg are antibiotic capsules containing 250 mg of cefalexin. Cefalexin is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections by preventing bacteria from forming their cell walls, which causes them to die.

What Do They Treat?

Cefex is commonly prescribed for treating:

  • Respiratory tract infections (like bronchitis, tonsillitis)
  • Ear infections (otitis media)
  • Skin and soft tissue infections
  • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Bone infections

How Do They Work?

Cefalexin works by interfering with the bacterias ability to build its cell wall, an essential structure for its survival. Without this wall, the bacteria cannot maintain their structure and eventually die, leading to the resolution of the infection.

How to Take Cefex Capsules BP 250 mg?

  • Dosage: The usual adult dosage is 250 mg every 6 hours, but this may vary depending on the type and severity of the infection. Always follow your doctors prescription.
  • Administration: Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. It can be taken with or without food.

Possible Side Effects:

Common side effects may include:

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Skin rash

If you experience severe side effects, such as allergic reactions (e.g., hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face), seek medical help immediately.

Who Shouldnt Take Cefex?

  • People allergic to cefalexin, other cephalosporins, or penicillin antibiotics should not take Cefex.
  • Inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney disease, gastrointestinal issues, or are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Storage Instructions:

  • Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from direct light and moisture.
  • Keep out of reach of children.

Important Tips:

  • Complete the entire course of treatment, even if you start to feel better, to prevent the infection from returning.
  • If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless its almost time for your next dose. Do not double up on doses.
