Frequently asked Questions about Maxee 500 Injection

Question over 5 years ago

Can I take Maxee without consulting a doctor?

Dr. Abhijit MBBS , General Physician

Maxee is a prescription drug, hence do not take Maxee without consulting doctor. It can be harmful to patients to take this medicine without a doctor's advice.

Question over 5 years ago

Can I take Maxee with penicillin?

Dr. Braj Bhushan Ojha BAMS , Gastroenterology, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Ayurveda, Sexology, Diabetology

No, Maxee cannot be taken with penicillin. Because penicillin inactivates the Maxee by combining the beta-lactam ring of penicillin with an amino group of this drug to form amide which is biologically inactive. For this reason Maxee should not be taken with penicillin. The chances of inactivation of this drug are higher in case of renal failure because in this case concentration of penicillin is higher in the kidney for a longer time as compared to the normal renal function.
