Afzone 125 MG Injection 1

Afzone 125 MG Injection 1 is a potent antibiotic used for the management of severe systemic bacterial infections. This includes the control of meningitis, pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, gonorrhoea, bone and joint infections, and septicemia (blood infection). Containing Ceftriaxone (a third-generation cephalosporin), it is a broad-spectrum, hospital-grade antibiotic.

Administer Afzone 125 MG Injection 1 as follows:

• A healthcare professional administers the medicine in a hospital or clinical setting.

• It is given as an intravenous infusion or deep intramuscular injection.

• Alternate the injection site for repeated doses.

• Continue the full course of treatment as your doctor prescribes, even if symptoms improve earlier. This prevents bacteria from continuing to grow, leading to a relapse of the infection.

Afzone 125 MG Injection 1 is administered either intravenously or via an intramuscular route.

Afzone 125 MG Injection 1 contains Ceftriaxone (125 mg), which works as follows:

• Inhibiting Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis: Ceftriaxone acts by blocking the synthesis of peptidoglycan - an integral component of the bacterial cell wall. This process involves binding to and deactivating penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), enzymes found on the inner membrane of bacterial cell walls.

• Inducing Bacterial Cell Death: Proper cell wall formation is prevented once PBPs are deactivated. This leads to a weakened cell wall, causing lysis or bursting of the bacteria cells and, ultimately, their death.

• Broad Spectrum Antibiotic Action: Ceftriaxone exhibits a broad spectrum of activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It remains highly stable even in beta-lactamases (enzymes produced by some bacteria to render antibiotics ineffective).

• Store Afzone 125 MG Injection 1 at room temperature below 30°C.

• Keep it in the original packaging to protect it from light and moisture.

• Make sure to keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Always check the expiry date before using Afzone 125 MG Injection 1.

• If you're managing urinary tract infections with Afzone 125 MG Injection 1, increase your water intake. This helps flush out bacteria from the urinary system.

• Proper wound care is essential for those with skin and soft tissue infections. The affected area should be kept clean and dry to prevent further infection.
