I've got a throat infection, and I'm wondering if azibact and cepodem have the same ingredients. Is it safe to switch from one to the other, especially if I'm dealing with something like follicular tonsillitis?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Azibact contains Azithromycin, while Cepodem contains Cefpodoxime. They belong to different classes of antibiotics and have different compositions. For throat infection or follicular tonsillitis, Azithromycin (Azibact) is commonly used. Cefpodoxime (Cepodem) may also be effective for these conditions, but it is not typically the first choice. It is important to follow the specific dosage and duration as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I'm really worried about this ongoing issue I've been having. It all started with just one nostril being stuffy, and I thought it was just a regular flu or runny nose, so I didn't pay much attention and took some over-the-counter meds. But here I am, 9 months later, and it's still not better. Now I've got these headaches around my forehead and the back of my head, and the mucus drainage smells really badnot like the usual kind. Plus, every time I try to clear my nose, I feel this pressure in my ears, which even causes me to cough. I haven't seen a doctor yet, but from what I've looked up, I'm suspecting it's some kind of sinus infection. What should I do?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a chronic sinus infection, given the persistent symptoms of nasal congestion, foul-smelling mucus, headaches, and ear pressure. It's important to see a doctor, ideally an ENT specialist, for a thorough evaluation and to discuss possible treatments such as antibiotics or nasal irrigation to help clear the infection.
