EXTACEF I 1000 MG INJECTION

Product Overview

EXTACEF I 1000 MG Injection is an antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is effective against infections of the brain (such as meningitis), lungs (like pneumonia), ears, urinary tract, skin and soft tissues, bones and joints, bloodstream, and heart.

It can also be used to prevent infections during surgery. The injection is administered either as a drip (intravenous infusion) or directly into a vein or muscle under a doctor’s supervision. The dosage and schedule are determined by your healthcare provider and must be followed carefully to ensure effective treatment. Completing the full course is essential to prevent recurrence or worsening of the infection.
