Xylistin 4.5MIU Injection is an antibiotic specifically designed to combat various types of bacteria. It is utilized in the treatment of severe bacterial infections throughout the body and is commonly administered to critically ill patients who are admitted to the hospital.

Xylistin 4.5MIU Injection is always given under the direct supervision of a healthcare professional. You should not attempt to self-administer this medicine at home. The precise dose and the duration of your treatment will be carefully determined by your doctor, based on the severity and specific type of infection you have. It is crucial to receive the injection regularly for the entire period your doctor has prescribed to ensure you achieve the maximum therapeutic benefits.

Common side effects associated with this medicine include gastrointestinal upset, slurred speech, dizziness, vertigo, fever, skin rash, and paresthesia (a tingling or prickling sensation). These side effects are typically temporary and often subside during the course of treatment as your body gradually adjusts to the medicine. However, if these side effects persist, become bothersome, or do not go away, you should consult your doctor.

Before beginning treatment with Xylistin 4.5MIU Injection, it is important to inform your doctor if you have any known allergies to antibiotics or if you have any pre-existing liver or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding mothers should consult their doctor before using this medication to ensure its safety. Your doctor may also order regular blood tests to monitor your kidney function and to check the level of the medicine in your blood.

Severe bacterial infections

Xylistin 4.5MIU Injection, classified as a polypeptide antibiotic, functions by effectively penetrating and then disrupting the crucial bacterial cell membrane of susceptible strains of aerobic gram-negative bacteria. This vital action ultimately leads to the killing of the bacteria, thereby combating the infection.

It is absolutely crucial to ensure your healthcare provider is fully aware of all the medicines you are currently taking or have taken in the past. This comprehensive disclosure must encompass prescription medications, over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, any nutritional and vitamin supplements, and all herbal products. This detailed information is vital because certain medications have the potential to interact adversely with Xylistin 4.5MIU Injection, which could reduce its effectiveness or lead to undesirable side effects.

This medication will be administered to you exclusively by a doctor or a qualified nurse within a hospital or clinic setting. Depending on the specific medical reason for its use, the drug may be delivered either by a fast or a slow injection directly into a vein. It is critically important that you do not attempt to self-administer this injection under any circumstances. Your doctor will carefully determine the appropriate dose and the overall duration of the treatment, tailoring it precisely based on the severity of your disease, your body weight, and various other individual factors.
