Ag-Ceph is also useful for preventing infections during surgical procedures. It is provided in a 60ml bottle, making it convenient for long-term treatment courses.

Functions

The primary function of Ag-Ceph 250mg|5ml Suspension is to eliminate harmful bacteria that cause infections. By interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis, this medication prevents bacteria from growing and reproducing, ultimately killing them. It is commonly used to treat infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, skin infections, urinary tract infections, and infections following surgery. It also serves as an important antibiotic in treating severe conditions like sepsis and heart inflammation.

Precautions

Before using Ag-Ceph 250mg|5ml Suspension, make sure to inform your doctor if you have any known allergies to cephalosporins, penicillin, or any of its other ingredients. Caution is necessary for patients with kidney issues, as dosage adjustments may be required. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using this medication, as there is limited data on its effects in these conditions. It is crucial to complete the full course of the antibiotic as prescribed to prevent antibiotic resistance.

Side Effects

While Ag-Ceph 250mg|5ml Suspension is generally safe for most individuals, some may experience side effects. Common side effects include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Allergic reactions like skin rashes, itching, and swelling may also occur. A more severe side effect, though rare, is pseudomembranous colitis, which is inflammation of the large intestine. If you experience severe abdominal pain, blood in stools, or persistent diarrhea, seek medical help immediately.

Cautions

Ag-Ceph 250mg|5ml Suspension should be used with caution in patients who have a history of penicillin or cephalosporin allergies.
