ABOUT SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION

SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION belongs to a class of medication called 'antibiotics' used to treat several bacterial infections of the urinary tract, bones and joints, heart, lungs, brain, chest, ears, skin or soft tissues. Bacterial infection is when harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION does not work against infections caused by a virus such as flu or a common cold.

SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION contains Cefdinir, a cephalosporin antibiotic that works by interfering with the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) necessary for their survival. This damages the bacterial cell wall and kills bacteria.

Take SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take SEFDIN DS SUSPENSION for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.
