Kephazon 1gm Injection
(CEFOPERAZONE)
How long does Kephazon take to work?
Usually, Kephazon starts working soon after you take it. However, it may take some days to kill all the harmful bacteria and relieve your symptoms completely.
How does Kephazon act?
Kephazon acts by adhering to the proteins synthesized by the bacteria, thereby inhibiting the organisms to develop their protective covering known as cell wall. This kills the bacteria.
Is Kephazon bad for the kidneys?
No, Kephazon is not bad for the kidneys when given alone, but when given along with aminoglycosides (gentamicin, tobramycin) or other cephalosporins antibiotics, it may increase kidney damage. Therefore, it is advised to take this medicine only if prescribed by your doctor.
Is Kephazon effective?
Kephazon is effective if used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Do not stop taking it even if you see improvement in your condition. If you stop using Kephazon too early, the symptoms may return or worsen.
How is Kephazon administered?
Kephazon is administered under the supervision of a trained healthcare professional or a doctor and should not be self administered. The dose will depend on the condition you are being treated for and will be decided by your doctor. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to get maximum benefit from Kephazon.
What if I do not get better after using Kephazon?
Inform your doctor if you do not feel better even after finishing the full course of treatment. You must also inform your doctor if the symptoms get worse while using this medicine.
