Description

Magnett (400Mg) is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic capsule containing Cefixime, manufactured by Continental Pharmaceuticals. It works by disrupting the formation of bacterial cell walls, ultimately leading to bacterial death and helping the body overcome infection. Each pack contains 5 capsules, offering an effective option for treating a broad range of bacterial infections in both adults and children above the age of 10.

Ingredients

Each capsule contains 400mg of Cefixime along with standard pharmaceutical excipients that support capsule formulation and stability.

Dosage Form

Magnett is available as an oral capsule, taken by mouth with water, with or without food.

Uses

Magnett is used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections, including urinary tract infections, throat infections such as tonsillitis and pharyngitis, ear infections (otitis media), skin and soft tissue infections, biliary tract infections, and respiratory infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia. It is not effective against viral infections like the common cold or flu.

How to Use

Take Magnett exactly as directed by your healthcare provider, typically at evenly spaced intervals for the best effect. It can be taken with or without food. Complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms improve early, to ensure the infection is fully treated and to help prevent antibiotic resistance.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include stomach upset or pain, diarrhea, nausea, gas, headache, or dizziness. These effects are usually mild and short-lived. If symptoms persist, worsen, or if signs of an allergic reaction appear, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before taking Magnett, as its use during these periods should be evaluated based on individual health needs and the nature of the infection.

Storage Instructions

Store Magnett in a cool, dry place at or below 25°C, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children, and do not use beyond the expiry date printed on the packaging.
