VROXIME-CV

VROXIME CV is a combination antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. These typically include infections of the respiratory tract (like bronchitis and pneumonia), urinary tract (UTIs), ear, nose, throat, and skin/soft tissues.

VROXIME CV contains two active components: Cefuroxime (an antibiotic from the cephalosporin class) and Clavulanic Acid (a beta-lactamase inhibitor).

Cefuroxime works by preventing bacteria from forming the protective cell wall necessary for their survival, thus killing them. Clavulanic Acid prevents bacteria from inactivating Cefuroxime by blocking bacterial enzymes (beta-lactamases), making the antibiotic more effective, especially against resistant strains.
