Common drug-name confusion: Vantin vs. other similar antibiotics

Vantin (cefpodoxime) is a different drug from antibiotics with similar-sounding names (for example, other cephalosporins), even though they may also treat infections in similar ways. If you tell me the exact product strength (mg) and form (tablet/suspension), I can help match it to the correct active ingredient.
