About Hifen LZ 200 mg/600 mg Tablet

CEFIXIME+LINEZOLID belongs to the group of medicines called 'antibiotics' used to treat various bacterial infections of the ear, sinus, throat, lung, and urinary tract. Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. CEFIXIME+LINEZOLID does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.

CEFIXIME+LINEZOLID is a combination of two antibiotics, namely: Cefixime (cephalosporin antibiotic) and linezolid (oxazolidinone antibiotics). Cefixime works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for their survival, thereby, killing the bacteria preventing the spread of infections. Linezolid works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Together, CEFIXIME+LINEZOLID helps to treat bacterial infections.
