Description

Meromac 1gm Injection is a powerful antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections in the body. It is commonly prescribed for infections affecting the lungs, blood, urinary tract, abdomen, skin, and soft tissues. This medicine contains meropenem, which is known for its broad-spectrum activity against a wide range of bacteria.

Meromac works by targeting and killing the bacteria responsible for the infection. Stopping the growth and multiplication of bacteria helps your body recover from the illness and prevents the infection from spreading. It is important to use this medicine only under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

This injection is typically administered in a hospital or clinic by a trained healthcare professional, such as a doctor or nurse. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the type and severity of the infection. Do not self-administer Meromac 1gm Injection, as incorrect use may reduce its effectiveness or increase side effects.

Common side effects may include nausea, diarrhoea, headache, or mild rash. Serious side effects are rare but can occur, including allergic reactions and changes in kidney function. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice severe reactions such as swelling, difficulty breathing, or persistent stomach issues.

It is important to complete the full course of Meromac 1gm Injection even if you start feeling better. Skipping doses or stopping treatment early may lead to the infection returning or bacteria becoming resistant. Also, discuss any planned surgeries or vaccinations with your doctor before starting treatment.

Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of the excessive and inappropriate use of antibiotics and misuse even when not required.
