Overview Ceftas 400mg Tablet DT
Ceftazidime 400mg tablets are a broad-spectrum antibiotic indicated for treating diverse bacterial infections. These tablets effectively combat respiratory infections (like pneumonia), urinary tract infections, ear, sinus, and throat infections, and certain sexually transmitted infections. Administer Ceftazidime 400mg tablets only under the guidance of a physician. Maintain a consistent dosing schedule as directed, taking the medication at the same time each day to improve adherence. Dosage varies depending on the infection; however, always complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve. Premature cessation may lead to treatment failure and recurrence of infection. This medication is ineffective against viral illnesses such as influenza or the common cold. Avoid unnecessary antibiotic use to preserve its future effectiveness. Common side effects include nausea, abdominal discomfort, dyspepsia, and diarrhea; generally mild, but report any persistent or bothersome symptoms to your doctor. Prior to initiating treatment, inform your doctor of any antibiotic allergies, kidney or liver conditions, and all other medications being taken, as interactions may occur.
