Description
Ceftriaxone 1gm
Ceftriaxone injection is an injection that is prescribed to treat various bacterial infections in the body. It belongs to a class of antibiotics called cephalosporins and was found to be effective against a variety of bacteria. The injection is often administered by a healthcare provider, such as a doctor or nurse, since it requires proper handling and observation. It may be administered either intravenously or intramuscularly, depending on the nature of the infection to be treated.
Ceftriaxone injection is widely employed in the treatment of infections such as pneumonia, urinary tract infection, skin and soft tissue infection, and some forms of meningitis. It accomplishes this by preventing the bacteria from producing cell walls, which ultimately results in their death. It should be taken as directed and for the entire length of the course to ensure the infection has fully cleared. Even if the symptoms go away, it is important to complete all the antibiotics so the bacteria don’t become resistant.
