Mega-CV 1.2gm Injection

Product Overview

Mega-CV 1.2gm Injection is a penicillin-based antibiotic designed to help combat bacterial infections. It is used to treat infections affecting the lungs (such as pneumonia), ears, sinuses, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues. This medicine is not effective against viral infections like the common cold.

This injection is typically administered by a healthcare provider and should not be self-injected. The doctor will determine the appropriate dose and frequency based on the severity of the infection. It is important to follow the prescribed treatment plan without any changes unless directed by your healthcare professional.

Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and thrush. You may also experience reactions at the injection site, such as pain, swelling, or redness. If these symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor. Those with severe kidney or liver issues should seek medical advice before starting this medication.

Make sure to inform your doctor if you are allergic to antibiotics or have any liver or kidney disorders, as this may require a change in treatment. When prescribed and supervised by a doctor, this medicine is generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Uses

Prevention of bacterial infections associated with surgical procedures.

Benefits

Mega-CV 1.2gm Injection combines Amoxycillin and Clavulanic Acid to effectively target bacterial infections. Amoxycillin helps stop bacterial growth, while Clavulanic Acid reduces resistance and boosts the antibiotic’s effectiveness. This combination is used to prevent infections following surgeries involving areas such as the gastrointestinal tract, pelvic cavity, head and neck, and biliary system.

Although you may feel better within a few days, it is crucial to complete the prescribed course to ensure that all bacteria are eradicated and resistance is avoided.

Common side effects include:

Nausea

How to Use

How It Works
