Description

Ag-Ceph 1gm Injection is a potent antibiotic designed to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. Composed of Cephradine, a type of cephalosporin, this injection is effective against infections in the respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, urinary system, skin, soft tissues, bones, joints, and even blood poisoning (septicemia). It is commonly used to manage infections of the heart (endocarditis) and for preventing infections during surgeries. The injection works by disrupting the bacterial cell wall, effectively stopping bacterial growth and providing relief from infection-related symptoms.

Functions

Ag-Ceph 1gm Injection works by targeting and inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria. Its broad-spectrum action makes it suitable for treating a wide range of infections, including those in the lungs, urinary tract, skin, and more. It is also used in preventing infections during surgical procedures and managing severe conditions like septicemia and endocarditis. By preventing bacterial cell wall synthesis, Ag-Ceph 1gm Injection helps reduce infection-related inflammation and accelerates the healing process.

Before using Ag-Ceph 1gm Injection, inform your doctor about any allergies you may have, especially to penicillin or other cephalosporins, as this may result in allergic reactions. Patients with kidney conditions should use this medicine cautiously and may need a dose adjustment. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before using this medication, as its effects during pregnancy and lactation are not fully understood. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, seek medical attention promptly.

Cautions

Patients with a known allergy to penicillin or cephalosporins should avoid using Ag-Ceph 1gm Injection. Additionally, caution is advised for those with kidney problems, as the medication may require dosage adjustments. It’s important to complete the full course of treatment, even if you start feeling better, to ensure the infection is fully eradicated and to prevent resistance.
