Relevant Products / প্রাসঙ্গিক পণ্য
✔️ Pharmacology
Rovantin contains Cefpodoxime, a third-generation oral cephalosporin with strong resistance to beta-lactamases and effective action against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. As a prodrug, it is metabolized into its active form, Cefpodoxime, which works against a broad range of bacteria.
- Excretion: About 29-33% of the drug is excreted unchanged via urine within 12 hours.
- Stability: Highly stable in the presence of β-lactamase enzymes, making it more effective against Gram-positive bacteria than other third-generation cephalosporins.
- Susceptible Organisms: Includes S. aureus, S. saprophyticus, S. pneumoniae, S. pyogenes, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, M. catarrhalis, N. gonorrhoeae, P. mirabilis, and others.
✔️ Side Effects
Rovantin is well-tolerated but may cause mild side effects, including:
- Common: Diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, and fungal infections (skin & vaginal).
- Less Common: Chest pain, muscle pain, indigestion, vertigo, and cough.
- Children: Higher likelihood of skin fungal rashes compared to adults.
✔️ For Adults & Adolescents (13+ years):
- Pharyngitis/Tonsillitis: 100 mg every 12 hours for 5–10 days.
- Acute Sinusitis: 200 mg every 12 hours for 10 days.

- Acute Sinusitis: 5 mg/kg every 12 hours for 10 days.
✔️ For Patients with Kidney Issues:
- Severe Renal Impairment (Creatinine Clearance <30 ml/min): Dosage interval should be extended to once every 24 hours.
✔️ For Patients with Liver Cirrhosis:
No dosage adjustment is necessary as the pharmacokinetics remain similar to healthy individuals.
✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation
- Pregnancy: Animal studies show no harmful effects, but no well-controlled human studies exist. Use only if necessary.
- Breastfeeding: Since Cefpodoxime is excreted in breast milk, a decision should be made to either discontinue the drug or breastfeed.
✔️ Drug Interactions
- Antacids & H₂ Blockers: Reduce absorption and peak plasma levels by 24–42%, lowering effectiveness.
- Probenecid: Increases Cefpodoxime concentration by reducing renal excretion (31% increase in AUC).
- Nephrotoxic Medications: When taken with other nephrotoxic drugs, kidney function should be closely monitored.
✔️ Contraindications
Patients allergic to Cefpodoxime or cephalosporin antibiotics should avoid using this medication.
✔️ Precautions & Warnings
- Dosage should be adjusted in patients with reduced kidney function.
- Caution is advised when used with potent diuretics, as they may enhance the risk of renal impairment.
- May cause overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms. Regular monitoring is recommended.
✔️ Storage Instructions
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat.
- Keep out of children’s reach.
