Cefixime and ofloxacin are medications used to treat bacterial infections. Here are some of the uses of cefixime and ofloxacin:

Cefixime:

• Bronchitis (infection of the airway tubes leading to the lungs)
• Gonorrhea (a sexually transmitted disease)
• Infections of the ears, throat, tonsils, and urinary tract
• Sinus infections in penicillin allergic patients
• Pneumonia
• Shigella (an infection that causes severe diarrhea)
• Salmonella (an infection that causes severe diarrhea)
• Typhoid fever (a serious infection that is common in developing countries)

Ofloxacin:

• A variety of bacterial infections

Cefixime and ofloxacin are sometimes used in combination to treat uncomplicated typhoid fever and urinary tract infections in adults. It is important to note that antibiotics such as cefixime and ofloxacin will not work for viral infections such as the common cold or flu. Using antibiotics when they are not needed can increase the risk of getting an infection later that resists antibiotic treatment. It is important to talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of using these medications for your specific condition.
