Hi,

Mahacef is composed of 'Cefixime', which is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections namely urinary tract infections, throat infections and lung infections.

You can take this medication as prescribed by your doctor as there are no contraindications indicated for your underlying clinical condition. Kindly do the necessary follow-up as advised.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ashakiran S, General & Family Physician
