Elbocef Tablet belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections. Elbocef Tablet is indicated in the treatment of gastrointestinal infections, urinary tract infections, otitis media (infection of the middle ear), meningitis (inflammation of the meninges), SSTI (skin and soft tissue infections), pneumonia, typhoid fever, post-operative surgery infections, and septicemia (blood poisoning caused by bacteria).
 
Elbocef Tablet is a combination of three drugs, namely: Cefixime, ofloxacin, and lactic acid bacillus. Cefixime works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for the survival of the bacteria. Ofloxacin prevents the bacteria from repairing and reproducing.
