It is also used to prevent infections in people undergoing certain surgical procedures. Ceftriaxone 250 mg is typically administered by injection either into a muscle or into a vein, depending on the type and severity of the infection being treated.

Common side effects include pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache, or dizziness. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, in rare cases, more serious side effects may occur, such as allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, difficulty breathing), severe diarrhea (with or without blood), liver or kidney problems, or changes in blood cell counts.

It is particularly effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including those resistant to other antibiotics. The dosage and duration of treatment with Ceftriaxone 250 mg 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.
