Kancin 1gm Injection

Kancin 1gm Injection belongs to the class of 'antibiotics', primarily used to treat severe bacterial infections and multi-drug resistant tuberculosis. Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that primarily affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other body parts, such as kidneys, brain, spine, and bone marrow.

Kancin 1gm Injection consists of 'Kanamycin' that belongs to the class of aminoglycoside antibiotics. It has bactericidal action and kills the bacteria. It works by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
