Uses:-
Ceftazidime 1gm + Sulbactam 500mg Injection is a combination antibiotic medication used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. Ceftazidime is a cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, while Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that helps in preventing bacterial resistance to ceftazidime. This combination is particularly effective against Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Ceftazidime + Sulbactam Injection is commonly used to treat infections such as pneumonia, urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, intra-abdominal infections, and septicemia. It is often prescribed in hospitals for serious infections or when other antibiotics are ineffective.
Side Effects:-
While Ceftazidime 1gm + Sulbactam 500mg Injection is generally well-tolerated, it may cause some side effects in some individuals. Common side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, rash, or injection site reactions such as pain, redness, or swelling. These side effects are usually mild and temporary, but if they persist or worsen, patients should consult their healthcare provider. In rare cases, Ceftazidime + Sulbactam Injection may cause more serious side effects such as allergic reactions (including rash, itching, swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, or difficulty breathing), severe diarrhea (with or without blood), liver problems, kidney problems, or changes in blood cell counts. Patients should seek medical attention if they experience any unusual or severe symptoms while receiving treatment with Ceftazidime 1gm + Sulbactam 500mg Injection.
Indication:-
Ceftazidime 1gm + Sulbactam 500mg Injection is indicated for the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms. It is particularly useful in infections caused by bacteria resistant to other antibiotics or in cases where broad-spectrum coverage is required. The dosage and duration of treatment with Ceftazidime + Sulbactam Injection will vary depending on the type and severity of the infection, as well as the patient’s age, weight, and medical history. It is important to follow the prescribed regimen carefully and to complete the full course of treatment as directed by a healthcare provider to ensure the infection is fully eradicated and to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance.
