Cefotaxime Sodium 1000mg
Description & Effects
LEFAXIME contains Cefotaxime 1000mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic available in injection form. It is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections by killing or inhibiting the growth of bacteria. It works by preventing bacteria from forming their protective cell wall, which is essential for their survival, leading to the elimination of the infection.LEFAXIME is commonly prescribed for serious bacterial infections involving the brain (meningitis), lungs (pneumonia), ear, abdomen, urinary tract, bones and joints, skin, blood, and heart (endocarditis). It is especially useful in hospital settings for treating infections that require rapid and strong antibiotic action.
This injection is administered by a healthcare professional, either intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM), depending on the severity and location of the infection. Patients often start feeling better within a few days of treatment; however, it is crucial to complete the full course as prescribed to avoid antibiotic resistance or recurrence of the infection.
LEFAXIME is generally well tolerated, but it’s important to inform your doctor of any allergies, especially to antibiotics. Regular monitoring may be needed during prolonged treatment. Always follow your doctor’s guidance for safe and effective use.
