I'm really concerned because I'm experiencing a lot of shivering. Do you think Taxim O will help with that? I'm starting to get worried because it seems to be happening more frequently. Could you please advise me on this?
Taxim-O (Cefixime) is an antibiotic and does not directly control shivering. Shivering could indicate a fever or infection; you may need a fever reducer like paracetamol along with Taxim-O if prescribed for infection. Please consult a doctor for proper evaluation.
