- Infection of the ear
- Nasal infections (including sinuses)
- Infection of the esophagus (including tonsillitis, pharyngitis)
- Infection of the bladder and

Who should not drink cefixime?
But before you give this antibiotic to your child, there are some things that you need to pay attention to, including:
- If it turns out your child is allergic to cefixime and other ingredients in it by showing allergic symptoms such as the appearance of a rash, swelling of the lips, face, tongue and esophagus and difficulty breathing or swallowing. It is best to consult with your doctor first.
- If it turns out your child has inflammation of the large intestine (colitis) and kidney disorders.
- If your child is less than 6 months old.
- If it turns out your child is also middle in the treatment of other drugs, you should consult with your doctor first. Sometimes, there are drugs that will affect the effects of other drugs when taken simultaneously. But there are also drugs that can be managed using them without being affected by the effects of treatment with other drugs.
- If your child is asked to do a blood test by another doctor, make sure the doctor knows that your child is consuming cefixime. The use of cefixime may have an impact on the results of the blood test.
What are the rules for using cefixime 100 mg?
The cefixime dose given to your child usually depends on your height, weight, and health condition of your child. Usually there is a special spoon in a 3.75 to 5 ml package to make it easier for you to give cefixime according to the dosage instructed by your doctor.
Doses can usually be given with one administration or can be divided into two times at different times. But if you feel that giving cefixime has little effect on your child's health, consult your doctor before you add the dose or change treatment.
