This mode of action is specific to bacteria and does not affect human cells, making cefpodoxime proxetil an effective antibiotic for treating bacterial infections.

16. Rifakem modulates the gut immune signalling, hence it is useful in ………………..?

Explanation

Rifakem modulates the gut immune signaling, which suggests that it can help regulate the immune response in the gut.

By modulating the immune signaling, Rifakem may help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms in individuals with IBS-D.

17. What is the meaning of refractory GERD?

Explanation

Refractory GERD refers to a condition where a patient with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) shows only a partial response or no response at all to PPI (proton pump inhibitor) therapy. PPIs are commonly prescribed medications for treating GERD by reducing the production of stomach acid. However, in refractory GERD, the symptoms of acid reflux persist despite PPI treatment, indicating a lack of effectiveness. This may require alternative treatment approaches or further investigation to determine the underlying cause of the patient's persistent symptoms.

Submit
18. Rifakem is bactericidal and bacteriostatic, hence it is useful in……………………?

Explanation

Rifakem is both bactericidal and bacteriostatic, meaning it can kill bacteria and inhibit their growth. This makes it useful in treating infectious diarrhea, which is caused by bacterial infections in the gastrointestinal tract. Rifakem can help eliminate the bacteria causing the infection and stop their growth, leading to relief from symptoms and resolution of the diarrhea. It is not useful in treating IBS-D (irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea) or HE (hepatic encephalopathy), which have different underlying causes.

Therefore, the correct answer is c) Dopamine receptor antagonist & 5 HT 4 agonist.
