FAQs

VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM is used to treat Bacterial infections.

Ceftriaxone (a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic) and Vancomycin (a tricyclic glycopeptide antibiotic) are in VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM. Ceftriaxone and Vancomycin work together to prevent the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) required for survival. As a result, the bacterial cell wall is damaged, and the organism is killed. As a result, VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM aids in the treatment of bacterial infections.

VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM may cause Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD). Antibiotic treatment alters the normal flora, leading to overgrowth of Clostridium difficile, which causes diarrhoea. Drink lots of fluids and eat non-spicy food if you experience diarrhoea. If you experience prolonged diarrhoea, consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.

Inform your doctor if you do not feel better even after finishing the full course of treatment. If the symptoms worsen using this medicine, consult your doctor immediately.

Usually, VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM starts working soon after taking it. However, it may take a few days to kill all the harmful bacteria and make you feel better.

To reduce the development of antibiotic resistance and maintain the effectiveness of VANCO PLUS INJECTION 3GM, it should only be used to treat or prevent infections that are proven or highly suspected to be caused by bacteria.
