MANUFACTURER: Platinum Pharmaceuticals (Pvt) Ltd

QUANTITY:

Pack of 12 capsules

INDICATION

Solvocef 500mg Cap is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms, including urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, pharyngitis and tonsillitis caused by Streptococcus pyogenes, otitis media, and respiratory tract infections.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Cephalexin is a bactericidal first-generation oral cephalosporin that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins and blocking the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan cross-linking. This leads to cell wall structural defects, osmotic instability, and bacterial lysis. It is well absorbed orally with approximately 90% bioavailability and achieves therapeutic concentrations in urine, skin, and soft tissues. It is active against gram-positive cocci including streptococci and methicillin-sensitive staphylococci, and some gram-negative bacteria.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

•      Adults: 250 to 500mg every 6 hours, or 500mg every 8 to 12 hours depending on infection severity

•      Severe infections: up to 1g every 6 hours

•      Take with or without food; food reduces stomach irritation without affecting absorption

•      Always complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms improve early

SIDE EFFECTS

Common:

•      Diarrhoea and nausea

•      Abdominal discomfort

•      Skin rash

•      Headache

Less common:

•      Hypersensitivity reactions including urticaria, angioedema, and anaphylaxis in penicillin-allergic patients

•      Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea with prolonged use

•      Elevated liver enzymes

•      Eosinophilia and neutropenia with prolonged use

NOT RECOMMENDED IN

•      Known hypersensitivity to cephalosporins or penicillins (cross-reactivity possible)

•      Severe renal impairment (dose reduction and interval adjustment required)

•      Not effective against MRSA or beta-lactamase-producing organisms

•      Caution in patients with history of penicillin allergy

DRUG INTERACTIONS

Probenecid reduces renal tubular secretion of cephalexin, increasing and prolonging plasma levels. Warfarin anticoagulant effect may be enhanced during antibiotic therapy; monitor INR. Metformin renal tubular secretion may be reduced by cephalexin, slightly increasing metformin exposure; monitor in patients with renal impairment. Nephrotoxic agents should be avoided concurrently as cephalosporins may compound renal toxicity in vulnerable patients.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

Store below 25°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep in original packaging. Keep out of reach of children.
