Cefpodoxime proxetil is typically administered orally. Dosage depends on the infection being treated and the patient’s age and weight. Always follow your doctor’s specific instructions.
For adults, common dosages range from 100mg to 200mg twice daily. Children’s dosages are calculated based on weight and the specific infection. A pediatrician will determine the appropriate dose.
| Adults (most infections) | 100-200 mg twice daily | Oral |
| Children (dosage determined by physician based on weight and infection) | Variable; consult pediatrician | Oral |
Take Cefpodoxime proxetil with a full glass of water. You can take it with or without food, but consistency is key. Maintain a regular schedule for best results.
