Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop

Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop is an antibiotic medicine containing cefalexin 100 mg per dose pack, supplied as oral drops for children or other patients who need a small, carefully measured amount of medicine. It belongs to the cephalosporin class of antibiotics and is used to treat certain bacterial infections when a clinician decides cefalexin is appropriate. Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop does not treat viral illnesses like colds or flu. The 10-pack strip/box helps provide repeated small doses as prescribed by a doctor.

How it works: Cefalexin works by stopping bacteria from building the protective wall they need to survive, which helps the infection clear up. In drop form, Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop makes it easier to give the medicine in a small, accurate amount for each dose.

Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop is a low-strength cefalexin option designed for patients who need a measured oral antibiotic dose rather than a tablet or capsule. Because it is only 100 mg per pack, a doctor may choose this form when precise dosing is important, especially for children or for people who cannot swallow solid dosage forms. It is not a higher-strength product; it fits into standard cefalexin dosing by allowing smaller, adjustable doses.

• Bacterial ear infections
• Throat and tonsil infections
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Respiratory tract infections
• Urinary tract infections

• Shake or prepare the drops exactly as directed before each dose, since the medicine may need careful measuring.
• Give Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop by mouth using the prescribed measuring device; do not estimate the dose.
• Follow the dosing schedule exactly, even if symptoms improve before the medicine is finished.
• It may be taken with or without food; giving it with food can help if stomach upset occurs.
• Finish the full prescribed course unless the doctor tells you to stop earlier.
• Do not double a dose if one is missed; ask the prescriber or pharmacist what to do instead.

Each Phexin Pead 100 mg Drop pack provides 100 mg of cefalexin. The exact dose, how many times a day it is taken, and the maximum daily amount are decided by the doctor based on age, weight, the type of infection, and kidney function. This 100 mg strength is used when smaller, more precise doses are needed; do not change the schedule on your own.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Cefalexin may include:

• Diarrhea
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Stomach pain
• Mild rash
• Headache

• Tell the prescriber if there is any allergy to cefalexin, cephalosporins, or a serious penicillin allergy history.
• Use extra caution if the patient has kidney disease, because dose adjustments may be needed.
• Do not use to treat viral infections; unnecessary antibiotic use can reduce effectiveness over time.
• Report severe diarrhea right away, especially if it is watery, bloody, or accompanied by fever.
• Tell the doctor about any history of severe drug rash, bowel disease, or bleeding problems.
• Give only the prescribed amount; because this is a 100 mg drop product, careful measuring is important to avoid underdosing or overdosing.
• If the product has flavoring or sweeteners, check ingredients for relevant sensitivities, especially in young children.

• Probenecid can raise cefalexin levels in the body.
• Metformin may need closer monitoring in some patients when used with cefalexin.
• Warfarin or other blood thinners may have a higher bleeding risk and may require monitoring.
• Live bacterial vaccines, such as oral typhoid vaccine, may not work as well during antibiotic treatment.
