Zinnat 125mg/5ml Suspension 50ml

Zinnat 125mg/5ml Suspension belongs to the cephalosporin antibiotic drug class, specifically a second-generation cephalosporin, with cefuroxime axetil as its active ingredient. Some individuals taking this suspension may experience diarrhoea, nausea, stomach discomfort, or a mild skin rash, particularly if taken on an empty stomach. It's formulated as a liquid suspension, which many parents and caregivers find easier to administer to children who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Because it's an antibiotic, completing the full prescribed course — even if symptoms improve early — is an important part of using it responsibly. Zinnat is manufactured by GSK (GlaxoSmithKline), a globally recognised pharmaceutical company with decades of experience in antibiotic therapies.

Dosage is typically calculated based on body weight and age, with common paediatric doses ranging from 125mg to 250mg taken twice daily, as prescribed by a doctor. Always follow your doctor's specific instructions and complete the full course as directed.

• Diarrhoea
• Nausea or vomiting
• Abdominal discomfort
• Skin rash
• Headache
• Loss of appetite
• Oral thrush or vaginal yeast infection (with prolonged use)
• Allergic reactions such as itching or hives (uncommon)

Before reconstitution, store below 30°C in a dry place away from sunlight. After reconstitution, store in the refrigerator between 2°C to 8°C and discard any unused portion after the recommended in-use period.

• Always shake the bottle thoroughly before measuring a dose
• Use the provided oral syringe or measuring cup for accurate dosing
• Complete the entire prescribed course, even if symptoms improve early
• Refrigerate the suspension after reconstitution and note the discard date
• Do not share this medication with others, even with similar symptoms
• Keep out of reach of children, especially given its liquid form

Shake the bottle well before each use, then measure the prescribed amount using the provided oral syringe or measuring cup. This suspension is generally best taken with food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset.

Before reconstitution, the powder generally remains stable for around 2 years from the date of manufacture. Once reconstituted into suspension, it typically remains usable for about 10 to 14 days, so check the discard date noted at the time of preparation.

Cefuroxime (as Cefuroxime Axetil) 125mg/5ml.

This suspension should not be used in individuals with known hypersensitivity to cefuroxime, other cephalosporins, or penicillins, as cross-reactivity can occur. Caution is advised in patients with a history of severe gastrointestinal disease or significant kidney impairment, and a doctor should be consulted before use in these situations.

Zinnat may interact with medications that reduce stomach acid, such as antacids or H2-receptor antagonists, which can lower its absorption if taken at the same time. It may also interact with probenecid, which can increase cefuroxime levels in the blood, so your doctor should be informed of any other medications being used alongside this antibiotic.
