Composition of Altacef-750 Injection Vial

Altacef-750 Injection Vial contains Cefuroxime (750mg). It belongs to the Cephalosporin class of medicines.

Uses of Altacef-750 Injection Vial

  • Bacterial infection
  • Chest infection
  • Urinary infection
  • Ear
  • Throat infection
  • Typhoid

Benefits of Altacef-750 Injection Vial

In Bacterial infection
Altacef-750 kills a wide range of bacteria by breaking down their cell walls, bringing the infection under control. Finishing the full course prevents it coming back.
In Chest infection
Altacef-750 treats bacterial infections of the chest, easing the cough, fever and breathlessness as the bacteria are cleared.
In Urinary infection
Altacef-750 clears the bacteria behind burning, frequency and pain on passing urine.
In Ear and throat infection
Altacef-750 treats bacterial infections of the ear, throat and sinuses, relieving the pain and fever they cause.
In Typhoid
Altacef-750 kills the typhoid bacteria in the blood and gut, bringing down the fever and preventing the complications of untreated typhoid.

How Altacef-750 Injection Vial works

Cefuroxime kills the bacteria causing your infection by destroying the cell wall that holds them together.

How to take Altacef-750 Injection Vial

This is given by a doctor or a nurse. Do not attempt to inject it yourself unless you have been trained and told to. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe loose motions and, rarely, fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Altacef-750 Injection Vial

Most side effects of Altacef-750 are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Loose motions
  • Nausea
  • Stomach pain
  • Rash
  • Thrush

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Safety advice for Altacef-750 Injection Vial

AlcoholCAUTION
Alcohol may worsen the side effects of this medicine. Limit it.
PregnancyCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor before using this in pregnancy.
Breast feedingCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor before using this while breastfeeding.
DrivingSAFE
Not expected to affect your ability to drive.
KidneyCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor if you have kidney disease.
LiverCAUTION
Use with caution if you have liver disease. Your doctor may adjust the dose or monitor your liver function.

Warnings and precautions

Finish the whole course even after you feel better — stopping early breeds resistant bacteria. Tell your doctor if you have ever had a severe reaction to penicillin; a small proportion of people react to both groups. Report severe or watery loose motions during or after the course rather than treating them yourself. Several medicines in this group are on Schedule H1 precisely because overuse drives antibiotic resistance. Take it only when a doctor has prescribed it for you.

Do not take Altacef-750 if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for anyone with a known allergy to cephalosporin antibiotics.

Interactions with other medicines

Antacids, iron and zinc reduce absorption — separate them by a couple of hours. Tell your doctor if you take a blood thinner.

How to store Altacef-750 Injection Vial

Store as printed on the carton — some injections need refrigeration and must not be frozen. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Altacef-750 Injection Vial

  • Space the doses evenly and complete the course.
  • Keep the reconstituted syrup as the pharmacist instructed and discard it after the stated number of days.
