Aztreonam is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It belongs to the tannin antibiotic class and is mainly used to treat bacterial infections that are resistant to other antibiotics. Aztreonam is commonly used to treat infections in areas such as the respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin and abdomen. This medication is usually given as an injection and must be used on schedule as recommended by your doctor. Some side effects may occur while using Aztreonam, including diarrhea, headache, and rash. If serious side effects occur, seek medical attention immediately. You should avoid drinking alcohol while using Aztreonam and inform your doctor of any other medications you are taking or allergies you have. Be sure to use Aztreonam as directed by your doctor and properly dispose of remaining medication after you have used the entire dose.
HOW TO USE: AZTREONAM is an injectable antibiotic that should be administered by a healthcare professional in a medical facility. Before injection, it is necessary to ensure that the medicine is free of foreign matter and meets the usage standards. There is no need to take it with a meal, but patients should stay well hydrated. Excessive exercise or heavy activities should be avoided during use.
Dosing Guidelines: Adults are generally recommended to inject 1 to 2 grams of AZTREONAM every 6 to 8 hours, depending on the severity of the patient's condition. For children, the dose needs to be adjusted based on weight and age, usually 25 to 50 mg per kilogram of body weight every 6 to 8 hours. The starting dose should be determined by a physician and adjusted at any time according to the condition. Kidney function and blood indicators should be checked regularly before long-term use to ensure safety.
