Medical Description
Pefcin infusion is an antibiotic used for selected serious bacterial infections when treatment through a vein is prescribed. It contains pefloxacin, a fluoroquinolone medicine that acts against susceptible bacteria. Pefloxacin blocks bacterial enzymes needed to copy and repair their genetic material, so the bacteria cannot continue multiplying. The infusion is given slowly into a vein by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic. Its use depends on the infection and medical assessment, and it does not treat viral illnesses such as colds or flu.
