Cefabene ointment is an antibacterial ointment used to treat skin infections caused by bacteria. This ointment contains cephalexin, which belongs to the cephalosporin class of antibiotics. It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and thus contributes to the treatment of skin infections. Cefabene is used to treat infections of the skin and soft tissues such as boils, abscesses, infected wound infections, and infections of the surrounding tissues such as soft tissue infection, as well as skin infections caused by bacteria.
Cefabene ointment is effective in reducing pain and swelling resulting from infection and speeds up the healing process by eliminating the bacteria that cause infection.
