Taboo

Medication contraindications refer to situations where a patient should not take a specific medication. CEFPODOXIME is contraindicated in the following circumstances:

1. Patients who are allergic to cephalosporin drugs should avoid using CEFPODOXIME because it may cause severe allergic reactions, including skin redness and swelling, difficulty breathing, etc.

2. Pregnant women should use CEFPODOXIME under the guidance of a doctor because the drug may have adverse effects on the fetus.

3. Patients with impaired liver function should use CEFPODOXIME with caution, because the drug needs to be metabolized by the liver, and poor liver function may cause drug accumulation and cause adverse reactions.

4. Patients with impaired renal function should be cautious when using CEFPODOXIME, because the excretion of the drug is mainly through the kidneys, and renal dysfunction may cause drug accumulation and cause toxic effects.

In short, patients should inform their doctor in detail about their allergy history, pregnancy status, and liver and kidney function status before using CEFPODOXIME to ensure safe use of the drug. If you are in any doubt, seek immediate advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
