Does Cegava TZ Injection cause pseudomembranous colitis?

Does Cegava TZ Injection cause dyspepsia?

For how long do I need to take Cegava TZ Injection?

You should take Cegava TZ Injection for as long as your doctor prescribes it, depending on the type and severity of your infection. It is typically taken for 4 to 14 days. If your symptoms do not improve or get worse, please contact your doctor immediately.

The use of Cegava TZ Injection does not typically cause diarrhoea. However, if you experience diarrhoea unusually or have concerns, please consult your doctor.

How long does Cegava TZ Injection take to work?

Cegava TZ Injection usually starts working within a few hours after taking it. However, the full effect may take a few days, depending on the infection and how your body responds to the medication. Always follow your doctor's instructions and let them know if you do not see any improvement in your symptoms.

What if I don't get better after using Cegava TZ Injection?

If you don't get better after using Cegava TZ Injection, it could be because the infection is resistant to the medication or there might be another underlying cause. Let your doctor know so they can adjust your dose or treatment, check for antibiotic resistance, or look into other possible causes. Always follow your doctor's advice and never stop the medication without consulting them first.

Can I stop taking Cegava TZ Injection when I feel better?

No, you should not stop taking Cegava TZ Injection just because you feel better. It's important to finish the entire course of antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor, even if you start feeling better. Stopping early could cause the infection to return or make the bacteria resistant to the medication.
