Description

Ceftriaxone Injection I.P. 250 mg

Riqicef-250 Injection is a sterile Ceftriaxone Injection I.P. 250 mg formulation intended for intravenous (I.V.) or intramuscular (I.M.) administration. Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that provides broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against a wide range of susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, resulting in the elimination of infection-causing bacteria.

Riqicef-250 Injection is commonly prescribed for the treatment of bacterial infections affecting the respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin and soft tissues, bones and joints, abdomen, bloodstream, and central nervous system. It may also be used in certain surgical settings for the prevention of postoperative infections when recommended by a healthcare professional. As an injectable antibiotic, it should be administered only by qualified medical personnel and used only for infections caused or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria.
