CompositionOxytetracycline Injection is an antibiotic medicine used to treat various severe bacterial infections throughout the body. It is commonly prescribed when oral antibiotic treatment is not suitable or during severe infection episodes.
It contains oxytetracycline, a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic. It is administered by a qualified healthcare professional directly into a muscle or vein as prescribed. Complete the full course of treatment as advised by your healthcare team, even if your symptoms improve early, to prevent the infection from returning or developing antibiotic resistance.
Supportive care during antibiotic treatment includes resting adequately, drinking plenty of fluids to stay hydrated, and following general hygiene practices to prevent secondary infections.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of kidney problems, liver disease, or severe drug allergies before receiving this medicine. It is generally avoided in pregnant or breastfeeding women and young children due to potential effects on bone and tooth development.
