About Cefupam 1500mg Injection
Cefupam 1500mg Injection belongs to the class of cephalosporin antibiotics indicated to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, including lower respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin and skin structure infections, septicemia (blood infection), meningitis (infection of brain and spinal cord), gonorrhoea (sexually transmitted infections), and bone and joint infections.
