ANDCEF INJECTION – BROAD-SPECTRUM CEPHALOSPORIN ANTIBIOTIC

Description: Andcef Injection is a powder for reconstitution containing ceftriaxone sodium equivalent to 1 g ceftriaxone (anhydrous), often supplied as a combipack with sterile water for injection (SWFI) or lidocaine for IM use. This third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, providing broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against many Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including those resistant to some other antibiotics.

In Nigeria, Andcef Injection (1 g IV/IM) is commonly prescribed for serious bacterial infections such as meningitis, pneumonia, sepsis, urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, bone/joint infections, gonorrhea, and other severe or community-acquired infections. It is NAFDAC-registered (e.g., NRN B4-9120) and available through trusted pharmacies like Sanlive for safe and effective use.

Important: For intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) use only, administered by a healthcare professional. Reconstitute as directed (e.g., with provided diluent) and use immediately or per stability guidelines. Avoid in individuals with cephalosporin, penicillin, or beta-lactam allergies (risk of cross-reactivity), or history of severe allergic reactions without medical supervision. Not for viral infections. Monitor for superinfections or resistance; complete full course as prescribed.
