Pharmacology:
Arlin contains Cefuroxime, a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic:
It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, which leads to bacterial lysis and death.
It has broad-spectrum activity effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Resistant to beta-lactamase enzymes, making it effective against penicillin-resistant bacteria.

Adults: 250-500 mg twice daily; for severe infections, the dose may go up to 1,000 mg.
Children (>12 years): Dose as per physician's recommendation, typically lower than adult doses.
Administer orally after meals to improve absorption and reduce gastrointestinal discomfort.
Interaction:
Probenecid increases plasma concentrations of cefuroxime.
Avoid combining with antacids or proton pump inhibitors, which may reduce absorption.
