Faronac Tablet

Faronac Tablet – Faropenem Antibiotic for Bacterial Infections

Faronac Tablet contains Faropenem 200 mg, an oral penem-class antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible microorganisms. Faropenem works by preventing bacteria from forming a protective cell wall that is essential for their growth and survival. This helps eliminate infection-causing bacteria and prevent the infection from spreading. The dosage and treatment duration depend on the type and severity of infection, kidney function, age, and clinical response. Faronac should be taken only according to a qualified healthcare professional’s prescription.
