Description & Effects
AMIKsil-500 contains Amikacin 500 mg, an aminoglycoside antibiotic used for treating serious bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins required by bacteria to grow, ultimately killing the bacteria. AMIKsil-500 is effective against a wide range of infections, including those of the urinary tract, respiratory tract (such as pneumonia), bones, joints, abdominal cavity, skin, soft tissues, and bloodstream. It is also used in cases of hospital-acquired infections and infections resistant to other antibiotics.This medicine is administered through intramuscular or intravenous injection by a healthcare professional. The dosage and duration are determined based on the severity and type of infection, patient's age, weight, and kidney function. It is important to complete the full course even if symptoms improve, to prevent recurrence or resistance.
AMIKsil-500 usually starts showing improvement in symptoms within a few days. However, it must be used with caution in patients with kidney issues, and regular monitoring of kidney function and drug levels may be required. Common side effects may include pain at the injection site, nausea, or rash. In rare cases, it may cause hearing loss or kidney damage, particularly if used for a long duration or at high doses. Always use under medical supervision.
