Cefadroxil Drug Info
Generic Name: Cefadroxil Capsules and Tablets (SEFF-ah-DROX-il)

Cefadroxil is used for:
Treating infections caused by certain bacteria.
Cefadroxil is a cephalosporin antibiotic. It works by interfering
with the bacteria's cell wall formation. This weakens the cell wall,
causing it to rupture, resulting in death of the bacteria.
Do NOT use Cefadroxil if:
you are allergic to any ingredient in Cefadroxil or any other
cephalosporin (eg, cephalexin)
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of
these apply to you. |
