Cefepime Hydrochloride & Tazobactam Sodium for Injection 1125mg

Product Introduction
Cefepime Hydrochloride and Tazobactam Sodium 1125mg Injection is a combination antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections caused by a wide range of bacteria, including resistant strains. This potent combination is effective for infections of the lungs (e.g., pneumonia), urinary tract, skin and soft tissues, intra-abdominal infections, bloodstream infections, and febrile neutropenia (fever associated with low white blood cell count). It is also used in the prevention of infections during major surgeries.

The combination of Cefepime, a fourth-generation cephalosporin, and Tazobactam, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, works synergistically to enhance the effectiveness of the antibiotic treatment. Cefepime inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, while Tazobactam blocks the beta-lactamase enzymes that some bacteria use to resist the effects of antibiotics. This combination increases the ability of Cefepime to combat bacterial infections, even those caused by mu...

The combination of Cefepime, a fourth-generation cephalosporin, and Tazobactam, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, works synergistically to enhance the effectiveness of the antibiotic treatment. Cefepime inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis, while Tazobactam blocks the beta-lactamase enzymes that some bacteria use to resist the effects of antibiotics. This combination increases the ability of Cefepime to combat bacterial infections, even those caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens.

Cefepime Hydrochloride and Tazobactam Sodium 1125mg Injection is administered intravenously (IV) by a healthcare professional. The dose and duration of treatment will depend on the severity and type of infection being treated. It is important to complete the full course of therapy as prescribed to ensure the infection is fully eradicated and to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance.

Common side effects of this injection may include rash, nausea, diarrhea, and injection site reactions (pain or redness). If these side effects persist or worsen, contact your doctor for advice.

Before starting treatment with Cefepime Hydrochloride and Tazobactam Sodium 1125mg Injection, inform your healthcare provider about any allergies, particularly to cephalosporin antibiotics or beta-lactam drugs.

How Cefepime Hydrochloride and Tazobactam Sodium 1125mg Injection Works

Cefepime is a fourth-generation cephalosporin that works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, which are essential for bacterial survival and reproduction. Tazobactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects Cefepime from being broken down by certain bacterial enzymes, thus enhancing its ability to combat resistant bacteria. Together, they provide a broad-spectrum treatment that is effective against a wide range of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including those resistant to other antibiotics.
