Accutaz AS 1000mg/125mg Injection

Accutaz AS 1000mg/125mg Injection – Overview
Accutaz AS Injection is a combination antibiotic given for the treatment of various bacterial infections. It acts by stopping the growth of harmful bacteria and preventing them from spreading further in the body.

This injection must be administered only by a qualified healthcare professional. The treatment schedule should be followed carefully, and the entire prescribed course should be completed even if symptoms improve. Stopping the medicine too early may allow the bacteria to survive and lead to resistance.

Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, or vomiting. In rare cases, allergic symptoms like skin rashes, itching, swelling, or breathing difficulties may appear, which require immediate medical help.

Before starting the medicine, inform your doctor about all other medicines you may be taking and any existing medical conditions. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should take medical advice before use. Alcohol intake should be avoided as it may cause drowsiness when taken with this medicine. Adequate rest, good nutrition, and plenty of fluids help in faster recovery.

Uses
Prescribed for bacterial infections of different types.

Benefits
Accutaz contains Ceftriaxone and Tazobactam. Ceftriaxone works by stopping bacterial growth, while Tazobactam improves its effectiveness by reducing bacterial resistance. This combination ensures better control of infection and helps patients feel better within a few days, provided the treatment is continued as advised.

Side effects
Temporary effects may include diarrhea, skin rash, allergic reactions, or raised liver enzymes. Most of these are mild and go away as the body adapts. Consult a doctor if they become troublesome.

How it is given
The injection is administered by a doctor or nurse only. Self-use is not recommended.

Mode of action
Ceftriaxone prevents bacteria from forming the protective layer necessary for survival, while Tazobactam blocks bacterial enzymes that cause resistance, making the antibiotic more effective.

Precautions
Alcohol intake is not harmful in most cases but should be discussed with a doctor. It is usually safe during pregnancy when prescribed by a doctor. Use during breastfeeding requires caution as the medicine may pass into breast milk. It may affect alertness and cause dizziness, so driving should be avoided if these symptoms occur. People with serious liver problems may need dose adjustment. Information about its use in kidney problems is limited, so medical consultation is essential.

Missed dose
If a scheduled dose is missed, consult your doctor for further guidance rather than trying to adjust the timing on your own.
