Can Cefuroxime Axetil Be Used To Treat Pneumonia As Well As STD?

My doctor prescribed cefuroxime axetil 500mgs. He prescribed this for acute bronchitis/pneumonia but I m seeing that it s used for an std...I don t have any std and didn t go to the dr for that, my question is can this be used for pneumonia and persistent cough and an std as well? I m a bit confused about that. Thank you
