  2.1 Important Administration Instructions Cefuroxime axetil tablets USP and cefuroxime axetil for oral suspension are not bioequivalent and are therefore not substitutable on a milligram-per-milligram basis [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.3)] . Administer cefuroxime axetil tablets USP tablets as described in the appropriate dosage guidelines [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)]. Administer cefuroxime axetil tablets USP with or without food. Pediatric patients (aged 13 years and older) who cannot swallow the cefuroxime axetil tablets USP whole should receive cefuroxime axetil for oral suspension because the tablet has a strong, persistent bitter taste when crushed [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)]. 2.2 Dosage for cefuroxime axetil tablets USP

  Administer cefuroxime axetil tablets USP as described in the dosage guidelines table below with or without food.
