Ceftriaxone is an antibiotic used to treat a variety of infections, including respiratory, skin, urinary tract and bone infections. This medication is usually given by intravenous injection and is suitable for adults and children. Ceftriaxone may cause some side effects, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash. During use, kidney function should be closely monitored and the medication should be used as directed by your doctor. If you experience a severe allergic reaction (such as difficulty breathing, rash, swelling, etc.), seek medical attention immediately. Ceftriaxone and calcium preparations should not be taken together to avoid interference with each other's efficacy. In Hong Kong, ceftriaxone requires a doctor's prescription to purchase and should be used in accordance with the doctor's recommendations. Do not change the dose or frequency on your own.
HOW TO USE: CEFTRIAXONE is an injectable antibiotic that should be administered by a healthcare professional in a medical facility. Before use, make sure the drug solution is clear and free of particles. It is usually a once-daily injection that can be taken with or without food. During use, fluid intake should be increased to ensure normal kidney function.
Dosage Guidelines: Adults generally recommend 1-2 grams daily, divided into 1 or 2 injections. For severe infections, the dose may be increased to 4 grams daily. The dosage for children is based on weight and condition, usually 50-80 mg/kg divided into 1-2 injections per day. For newborns and premature infants, the dosage needs to be adjusted according to body weight and pathogen sensitivity, please ask your physician for guidance. During long-term use, check cholesterol and bile acid levels regularly to monitor biliary function.
CEFTRIAXONE is an antibiotic commonly used to treat various bacterial infections. However, they all have some common side effects, including headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and skin sensitivity. Rarely, people may experience allergic reactions such as redness of the skin, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the throat. In addition, long-term heavy use of CEFTRIAXONE may also affect kidney function and cholesterol levels. If serious side effects occur, consult your doctor immediately. Read the instructions carefully before using the medicine and follow the advice of your doctor or pharmacist.
Drug contraindications mean that patients should not use a certain drug under certain circumstances to avoid causing serious harm to the body. Contraindications to CEFTRIAXONE include patients who are allergic to cephalosporins, penicillins, or other beta-lactam antibiotics because of the potential for allergic reactions and even severe anaphylactic shock. In addition, CEFTRIAXONE should not be used in patients with high neonatal jaundice because it may aggravate the jaundice. For pregnant and lactating women, CEFTRIAXONE should be used under the guidance of a physician to avoid adverse effects on the fetus or infant. Patients with gallbladder disease, liver disease, or kidney disease should use CEFTRIAXONE with caution as it may worsen disease symptoms or burden the organs. When using CEFTRIAXONE, patients should inform their physician of their allergies and medical history to ensure safe use of the drug. If serious adverse reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately and discontinue use of CEFTRIAXONE. In short, following the doctor's advice and ensuring that CEFTRIAXONE is used safely is an important measure to protect the patient's health.
