USE
ZINNAT suspension belongs to a group of medicines called cephalosporin antibiotics. The active ingredient in ZINNAT suspension (cefuroxime axetil) works by killing bacteria (germs) that cause infections such as infections of the ear, throat and tonsils.
The most commonly reported side-effects are:
- diarrhoea.
- nausea or vomiting.
- nappy rash.
- stomach pain.
- headache.
- dizziness.
- fungal infections (such as candida)
ZINNAT is excreted in human milk, and consequently caution should be exercised when ZINNAT is administered to a nursing mother. As this medicine may cause dizziness, patients should be warned to be cautious when driving or operating machinery. Adverse drug reactions to ZINNAT are generally mild and transient in nature.
