Uses of Fosfona Injection

  • Bacterial infection
  • Gut infection
  • Skin infection
  • Dental infection

Benefits of Fosfona Injection

In Bacterial infection
Fosfona treats the bacterial infection it was prescribed for by killing the bacteria or stopping them multiplying. Finishing the course makes sure the infection does not return.
In Gut infection
Fosfona clears the bacteria or other organisms causing diarrhoea, abdominal pain and bloating, so the gut settles.

In Dental infection
Fosfona treats infections of the teeth and gums, easing the pain and swelling until your dentist can deal with the cause.

How Fosfona Injection works

Fosfomycin kills or stops the growth of the bacteria causing your infection.

How to take Fosfona Injection

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 nerve symptoms. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Fosfona Injection

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

  • Nausea
  • Metallic taste
  • Loose motions
  • Stomach pain
  • Headache

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.

Warnings and precautions

Finish the whole course even after you feel better.

Report severe or watery loose motions during or after the course rather than treating them yourself. Tetracyclines stain developing teeth and are avoided in young children and in pregnancy. Antibiotics do not work against colds, flu or most sore throats, which are caused by viruses.

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

Interactions with other medicines

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

How to store Fosfona Injection

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 Fosfona Injection

  • Space the doses evenly and complete the course.
  • Take tetracyclines with a full glass of water and stay upright for half an hour afterwards.
  • Never use a leftover antibiotic, or someone else's, for a new illness.
