Fosfomycin 4 gm Injection

Product Introduction

Fosfomycin 4 mg Injection is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It effectively treats infections in the urinary tract, lungs (e.g., pneumonia), bones, brain (e.g., meningitis), and blood. However, doctors prescribe it only when other common antibiotics are not effective.

You should take Fosfomycin 4 mg Injection at evenly spaced intervals as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage depends on the infection being treated, but it’s important to complete the full course of this antibiotic as prescribed. Even if you feel better, do not stop using it early. Stopping too soon may allow bacteria to survive, leading to a recurrence of the infection.

The most common side effects include headaches, dizziness, indigestion, and gastrointestinal disturbances. Consult your doctor if your condition does not improve after two to three days or if these side effects persist or cause concern.

Before starting Fosfomycin 4 mg, inform your doctor if you have any allergies to antibiotics or any kidney or liver conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before using this medicine. Avoid alcohol and caffeinated drinks while using Fosfomycin, as it may cause drowsiness or dizziness. Do not drive if you experience these symptoms.
