Before starting this medicine, you should inform your doctor about any existing health conditions or ongoing medications. If you experience any side effects while on this medication, notify your doctor immediately. It is important to continue administering this medicine for the entire duration prescribed by your doctor to ensure complete management of the infection.

Directions for Use of C Pine 1000mg Injection 1

Administer C Pine 1000mg Injection 1 as follows:

The injection is administered intravenously by your doctor or nurse.
The injection could be administered slowly into a vein over 3-5 minutes or into a large muscle.
It's crucial to complete the prescribed course even if symptoms improve earlier.
Remember, skipping doses or stopping treatment prematurely may lead to inadequate control of the infection or the development of resistant bacteria.
Always consult your doctor for specific advice on how to use this medicine.

Side Effects of C Pine 1000mg Injection 1

C Pine 1000mg Injection 1 may have the following side effects:

Diarrhoea
Nausea
Vomiting
Abdominal Pain
Phlebitis: This is inflammation of a vein, often where the injection was administered.
Anaemia: A condition where your blood has fewer red blood cells than normal, causing tiredness and shortness of breath.
Thrombocytopaenia: This relates to a lower platelet count, which helps your blood clot.
Paresthesia: This term describes abnormal sensations like tingling or numbness.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which are resolved by discontinuing the use of C Pine 1000mg Injection 1. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some tips for managing common side effects:

Diarrhoea: Try consuming sufficient fluids to replace the water lost through diarrhoea.
Nausea: If you feel nauseous, consider having smaller but more frequent meals instead of three large meals a day.

C Pine 1000mg Injection 1 contains cefepime (1000 mg) which acts on your body via the following mechanisms:

Inhibiting Cell Wall Synthesis: Cefepime works by blocking essential proteins needed for developing and strengthening bacteria's cell walls.
Causing Bacterial Cell Death: By disrupting the integrity of bacterial cell walls, cefepime causes lysis (the breaking down) of bacterial cells leading to their death.
Stability Against Beta-Lactamase Enzymes: Unlike some other cephalosporins, cefepime can resist many beta-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria, which could otherwise neutralise antibiotic effects.
