PANJECXIME

Do not use Panjecxime in people with the following conditions:

• Allergy to cefuroxime or other cephalosporin antibiotics: If you have a known allergy to cefuroxime or other cephalosporin antibiotics, it is important to avoid using cefuroxime as it may cause an allergic reaction. Be sure to inform your healthcare provider about any known allergies before starting cefuroxime or any other medication.
• Severe allergic reactions to penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics: Cefuroxime belongs to the beta-lactam class of antibiotics, which includes penicillins. If you have a history of severe allergic reactions to penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics, your healthcare provider may consider cefuroxime to be contraindicated due to the potential for cross-reactivity.
• Colitis or antibiotic-associated diarrhea: Cefuroxime can disrupt the natural balance of bacteria in the intestines and may lead to the overgrowth of certain bacteria, such as Clostridium difficile. If you have a history of colitis or antibiotic-associated diarrhea, cefuroxime may be contraindicated or used with caution due to the increased risk of these conditions.
• Renal impairment: Cefuroxime is eliminated from the body primarily through the kidneys. If you have severe renal impairment or kidney disease, your healthcare provider may need to adjust the dosage of cefuroxime or choose an alternative antibiotic.

Inform your healthcare provider if you experience symptoms such as vaginal itching, discharge, or white patches in the mouth.
• Other side effects: Less commonly, cefuroxime may cause changes in liver function, blood disorders, or kidney problems. These side effects are rare but can occur. It is important to report any unusual symptoms to your healthcare provider.

Precautions

Take extra caution in patients with the following medical conditions:

• Allergies: Inform your healthcare provider if you have any known allergies to cefuroxime or other cephalosporin antibiotics, as well as any other medications. This is crucial to avoid potential allergic reactions.
• Medical history: Inform your healthcare provider about your medical history, especially if you have had any previous kidney or liver disease, gastrointestinal issues, or a history of colitis or antibiotic-associated diarrhea. This information will help your healthcare provider determine if cefuroxime is suitable for you and if any dosage adjustments are necessary.
• Other medications: Inform your healthcare provider about all the medications, supplements, and herbal products you are currently taking. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medications, as well as any recent vaccinations. Certain medications may interact with cefuroxime and affect its effectiveness or increase the risk of side effects.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is important to discuss the risks and benefits of using cefuroxime with your healthcare provider. They will consider the potential benefits to you and the potential risks to your baby before making a decision.
• Blood clotting disorders: Cefuroxime may interact with certain blood-thinning medications, such as warfarin, increasing the risk of bleeding. If you are taking any blood thinners, it is crucial to inform your healthcare provider to ensure proper monitoring and adjustment of your medication regimen.
• Complete the full course: It is important to complete the full course of cefuroxime as prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if you start feeling better before the completion of the treatment. Stopping the medication prematurely may result in incomplete eradication of the infection and potential development of antibiotic resistance.
