Product Overview
Stemcef 250 is a high-quality cefuroxime 250mg tablet designed to treat a broad range of bacterial infections. Cefuroxime belongs to the second-generation cephalosporin class and is widely used due to its strong effectiveness, safety profile, and ability to treat both upper and lower respiratory infections.
For doctors, cefuroxime is often a preferred choice when first-line antibiotics fail or when resistant bacterial strains are suspected. For distributors and PCD franchise partners, Stemcef 250 is a consistently high-demand antibiotic with widespread prescription coverage.
Indications for Cefuroxime 250mg
The stemcef 250 tablet is indicated (under medical supervision) for:
Upper respiratory tract infections: sinusitis, tonsillitis, pharyngitis
Lower respiratory tract infections: bronchitis, pneumonia
Skin and soft tissue infections
Urinary tract infections
Ear infections (otitis media)
Gonorrhea (in some cases, as part of recommended regimens)
Cefuroxime is also used when penicillin-based antibiotics cannot be prescribed.
Mechanism of Action
Cefuroxime is a beta-lactam antibiotic that works by:
Binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs)
Inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis
Causing bacterial lysis and death
This bactericidal mechanism is well-documented in cephalosporin pharmacology.
Due to its stability against certain beta-lactamases, cefuroxime 250mg is effective against many resistant strains.

Usual adult dose: 250 mg twice daily, depending on infection type and severity.
Must be taken after food for better absorption.
Swallow the tablet whole with water.
