Side Effects of Montaz 250mg Injection 1

Montaz 250mg Injection 1 may have the following common side effects:

Injection site pain
Redness
Swelling
Increased liver enzymes: This could indicate an impact on your liver function.
Allergic reactions

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Montaz 250mg Injection 1. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Montaz 250mg Injection 1 consists of two active ingredients:

Ceftriaxone (250 mg): This component is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that has bactericidal activity. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. It binds to proteins in the bacteria which are responsible for forming the cell wall (known as penicillin-binding proteins or PBPs), disrupting their function and leading to the death of the bacteria.
Tazobactam (31.25 mg): This component acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor which protects ceftriaxone from being broken down by certain enzymes produced by resistant bacteria. By stopping these enzymes from working, tazobactam helps ceftriaxone maintain its effectiveness against beta-lactamase-producing strains of bacteria.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Montaz 250mg Injection 1 if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
