It is indicated for the treatment of various bacterial infections including respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia, urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and Lyme disease.

It is generally prescribed based on the susceptibility of the causative organism and the site of infection. Dosage and duration of therapy should be tailored according to the severity of infection and patient-specific factors such as renal function.

Caution is advised in patients with a history of penicillin or cephalosporin allergy. Use during pregnancy and lactation should be under medical supervision.
