About Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's
Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.
Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's is a combination of two medicines: Cefepime and Tazobactam. Cefepime is a cephalosporin antibiotic. It has bactericidal action (kills bacteria). It works by preventing the formation of the cell wall (the outer protective layer of bacteria, which is essential for its survival) by preventing protein synthesis. Tazobactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It can improve the spectrum of antibacterial action by inhibiting the action of beta-lactamase. Beta-lactamase is an enzyme produced by bacteria that can destroy antibiotics (cefotaxime). Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's is only used to treat bacterial infections and is not recommended for viral infections.
Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. The common side effects of Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's are pain and swelling at the injection site and skin rash. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.
It is not recommended to take Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's if you are allergic to penicillin, any cephalosporin antibiotic, or its contents. Before taking Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's, inform your doctor if you have kidney problems, diabetes, gastrointestinal problems, especially colitis (inflammation of the large intestine), or use other antibiotics. Do not discontinue or abruptly stop using Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's as it may lead to antibiotic resistance (bacteria become resistant to antibiotics). This medicine is not recommended in children aged less than two years. Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's should be used with caution in pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers and elderly people. Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's may interact with alcohol. Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's may not affect your ability to drive.

Drug Warnings
Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment. There is a risk of serious adverse events such as confusion, hallucinations, stupor (a state of near-unconsciousness), and seizures (fits). Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's may cause Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD), ranging from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis (inflammation of the large intestine). If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, the doctor may discontinue therapy and advise appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, and antibiotic therapy to treat CDAD. A Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's may cause positive direct Coomb’s test, which indicates antibodies against red blood cells. So, it is necessary to let your doctor know that you are taking this medicine before undergoing laboratory tests. Do not discontinue or abruptly stop the medication as it may lead to antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's may cause superinfection (additional infection caused by other microbes) on prolonged use.

Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's is used to treat bacterial infections. It contains Cefepime and Tazobactam. Cefepime reduces the infection by inhibiting bacterial growth. It disrupts the formation of the cell wall (outer layer), which is essential for bacteria's survival. Tazobactam inhibits the action of beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by the bacteria to destroy antibiotics (cefepime).
The common side-effects of Eydipime 2.5 Injection 1's are pain and swelling at the injection site, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache and skin rash. These side-effects are usually mild and temporary. However, inform your doctor immediately if any of these side-effects persist or get worse.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Bacterial infections: A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect the body. It can target any organ of the body and multiply very quickly. Many give off chemicals called toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Bacterial infections vary from minor illnesses (like sore throat and ear infections) to severe brain infections (like meningitis and encephalitis). When you get infected with bacteria, you can experience generalized symptoms, like fevers, chills, and fatigue. Few harmful bacteria that commonly cause infections include Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and E. coli. Anyone can get a bacterial infection, but people with a weak immune system or taking immunosuppressive medicines like steroids are more prone to infections.
