The dosage and duration of treatment with Ceftizoxime 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.
