Amoxicillin B is a drug used to treat fungal infections. It is often used for severe Candida infections such as candidemia or Candida meningitis. Amoxicillin B inhibits the growth and reproduction of fungi by damaging their cell membranes. This medication is usually given as an intravenous injection because it is not well absorbed orally. Patients need to monitor kidney function closely while using amoxicillin B because this drug may cause damage to the kidneys. Common side effects include fever, headache, nausea, and vomiting. In Hong Kong, amoxicillin B is usually used in hospitals by medical professionals, and strict compliance with medical advice and monitoring is required. Patients should inform their doctor immediately if they experience any adverse reactions or suspected drug allergic reactions.
Directions for use: Follow your physician's instructions when using Amphotericin B. It is usually given as an intravenous injection in a medical setting. Before use, make sure the medicine is free of particles or discoloration. Periodic blood tests may be needed to monitor drug effects and side effects. During use, maintaining adequate fluid intake can help reduce the risk of kidney damage.
Dosage Guidelines: The dosage of Amphotericin B will be based on the patient's condition and weight. The usual starting dose is 0.5 to 1 mg/kg daily, given in divided doses. For children, dosage may be adjusted based on age and weight. Your doctor may adjust the dosage according to your condition, so please do not increase or decrease the dosage on your own. If you have any questions or discomfort, please consult your physician immediately.
