Xtum O 100/62.5 MG Dry Syrup 30 ML combines two active ingredients:

• Cefpodoxime Proxetil (100 mg): This ingredient is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It inhibits the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. This leads to cell breakdown and death of the bacteria.

• Clavulanic Acid (62.5 mg): This component acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor. Certain bacteria produce beta-lactamase enzymes, which can inactivate some penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics. Clavulanic acid attaches itself to these enzymes irreversibly, preventing them from degrading cefpodoxime. This increases the susceptibility of beta-lactamase-producing bacteria to cefpodoxime.

• Store Xtum O 100/62.5 MG Dry Syrup 30 ML in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight at room temperature below 30°C.

• Once you've mixed the syrup with boiled and cooled water, keep it in the fridge and use it within 10 days.

• Keep the syrup out of reach of children.

• Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids. This helps to flush the bacteria-causing infection from your child's system, aiding recovery.

• Ensure your child gets enough vitamin C in their diet. This can boost their immune system and help fight off bacterial infections more efficiently. Foods rich in vitamin C include oranges, strawberries, and bell peppers.
