FLEMING INJ 600MG PER VIAL
FLEMING is a penicillin-type antibiotic combined with a beta-lactamase inhibitor, used to treat certain bacterial infections. It is given as an injection and is available without a prescription.
What it is
FLEMING is a combination medicine containing amoxicillin (a penicillin antibiotic) and clavulanic acid (a beta-lactamase inhibitor). The clavulanic acid helps prevent certain bacteria from breaking down amoxicillin, making the antibiotic more effective against a wider range of bacteria.
What it's used for
It is used to treat infections in adults and children caused by susceptible bacteria, including lower respiratory tract infections, acute bacterial otitis media (middle ear infection), sinusitis, and skin and skin structure infections.
Common side effects
The most frequently reported side effects include diarrhea or loose stools (about 9%), nausea (3%), skin rashes and hives (3%), vomiting (1%), and vaginal inflammation (1%). Tell your doctor if any side effect persists or becomes bothersome.
Important cautions
Do not use FLEMING if you have a history of serious allergic reaction (such as anaphylaxis or Stevens-Johnson syndrome) to penicillins, cephalosporins, or any of its ingredients. Stop use and seek medical attention if you develop signs of a severe allergic reaction (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing) or signs of liver problems (yellowing of skin or eyes, dark urine, severe stomach pain). It may also cause severe diarrhea that could be a sign of a different infection. Avoid if you have had liver damage (cholestatic jaundice) from amoxicillin/clavulanate before.
