MEROCRIT 1

Merocrit 1gm Injection is a potent antibiotic that is specifically used to treat severe infections affecting various parts of the body, including the skin, lungs, stomach, urinary tract, blood, and brain (for example, meningitis). It effectively works by directly killing the bacteria that cause these problematic infections. However, it is important to note that this medicine will not treat a viral infection.

Merocrit 1gm Injection is commonly administered to critically ill patients admitted to the hospital. This medicine is given either by drip/infusion or by direct injection into a vein, always under the careful supervision of a doctor or a nurse. The precise dose will be determined based on the specific type of infection you have, its location in the body, and its overall seriousness. You should continue taking the injection for as long as you have been prescribed, even if your symptoms begin to improve quickly, as stopping the treatment too early may cause the infection to return or worsen.

Some individuals may experience certain side effects such as headache, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, anemia, vomiting, and rash. These side effects are typically temporary and usually resolve as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, you should consult your doctor if these side effects bother you or do not go away.

Before commencing treatment with this medicine, you should inform your doctor if you have epilepsy (seizures), liver or kidney problems, or if you are allergic to any antibiotic. While using it, your doctor may advise you to undergo regular blood tests to monitor your blood cell count and kidney function. This medicine is generally regarded as safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding if prescribed by your doctor.
