Manufactured by Global Napi Pharmaceuticals, this prescription-only medicine is crucial for treating serious bacterial infections.

Benefits of Use

• Highly effective against a broad spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
• Used in the treatment of severe infections including respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, and septicaemia.
• Convenient once-daily dosing in many clinical scenarios, improving patient compliance.
• Critical for hospital-acquired infections and community-acquired infections requiring parenteral therapy.

How to Use

1. PRIMOCEF 1 GM I.V VIAL is intended for intravenous administration only and should be prepared and administered by a qualified healthcare professional.
2. The powder in the vial should be reconstituted with an appropriate sterile diluent (e.g., Sterile Water for Injection, Sodium Chloride 0.9% Solution) as directed by the prescribing physician or pharmacist.
3. Administer the reconstituted solution slowly via intravenous infusion over a specified period, typically 30 minutes.
4. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the type and severity of the infection, as well as the patient's age and renal function.
5. Always complete the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if symptoms improve, to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance.

Caution & Warnings

• Do not use if you have a known allergy to Ceftriaxone, other cephalosporins, or penicillins. Inform your doctor about any past allergic reactions to antibiotics.
• Serious allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) can occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience rash, itching, swelling of the face/throat, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
• Use with caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease, especially colitis, as antibiotic use can lead to pseudomembranous colitis.
• Inform your doctor about all other medications, herbal supplements, and vitamins you are taking, as interactions may occur (e.g., with calcium-containing solutions).
• PRIMOCEF should be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding only if clearly needed and under strict medical supervision.
