Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml

Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml is a broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections. It contains the active ingredient Amikacin, which is effective against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria that cause infections in the lungs, urinary tract, skin, bones, and bloodstream. By binding to bacterial ribosomes and inhibiting protein synthesis, Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml stops bacterial growth and eliminates severe infections. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as pneumonia, complicated urinary tract infections, sepsis, and infections caused by Pseudomonas or Acinetobacter.

Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml contains Amikacin, a broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic from the kanamycin class, used for the treatment of serious bacterial infections in adults and children. It is prescribed when infections are caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and require powerful systemic antibacterial therapy.​

Amikacin works by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacteria. This inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with the initiation complex, causing misreading of the genetic code and inhibiting translocation. Ultimately, this leads to the production of defective proteins and bacterial death.​

Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml is commonly indicated for severe infections such as hospital-acquired pneumonia, complicated urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, sepsis, bone and joint infections, and skin infections. It is particularly effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter, Enterobacteriaceae, and other resistant Gram-negative bacteria when susceptibility is confirmed.​

By directly targeting bacterial protein synthesis, Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml helps control life-threatening infections, supports faster recovery from sepsis and severe pneumonia, and reduces complications associated with multidrug-resistant bacteria. Monitoring of kidney function and hearing is essential during treatment to ensure safety and optimal effectiveness. Always follow prescribed dosing and complete the full course as advised by healthcare providers.

Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml is indicated for serious bacterial infections in adults and children:

• Hospital-acquired pneumonia from Gram-negative bacteria

• Sepsis and bloodstream infections, including neonatal sepsis

• Intra-abdominal infections like peritonitis

• Bone and joint infections (osteomyelitis, septic arthritis)

• Complicated urinary tract infections from resistant organisms​

• Effective against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter

• Rapid bactericidal action by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis

• Synergistic with beta-lactam antibiotics for enhanced efficacy

• Gold standard treatment for Pseudomonas infections

• Critical for life-threatening hospital infections and sepsis management

When used as directed under medical supervision, Abcin 500mg Injection 2ml is generally safe for serious infections. Side effects require monitoring due to kidney and ear risks.

Common Side Effects (Mild and temporary):

• Nausea or vomiting

• Mild pain at the administration site

• Rash or itching​

Serious Side Effects (Stop treatment and seek urgent medical attention if you experience):

• Kidney damage: Decreased urine, swelling, fatigue

• Hearing loss or balance problems (ototoxicity)

• Severe allergic reactions: Rash, swelling, breathing difficulty

• Neuromuscular blockade: Muscle weakness, breathing difficulty

• High blood levels can cause seizures or coma​.

• Administration: Given by a healthcare professional. Never self-administer.
• Consistency: Follow the exact dosing schedule; levels monitored by blood tests.
• Hydration: Ensure adequate fluid intake to protect the kidneys.
• Complete the Course: Finish the full treatment duration even if improving. Regular kidney/hearing tests are required during therapy.

• Kidney Monitoring: Regular blood tests are required to check kidney function and drug levels. Report decreased urine or swelling immediately.

• Hearing Protection: Baseline hearing test needed. Stop treatment if ringing in the ears (tinnitus), dizziness, or balance issues occur.

• Hydration Critical: Drink plenty of fluids to protect the kidneys from toxicity.

• Complete Full Course: Finish the entire prescribed duration, even if improving early, to prevent resistance.

• Report Muscle Weakness: Stop immediately if breathing difficulty or severe weakness occurs.

• Avoid Dehydration: Vomiting/diarrhoea increases toxicity risk; seek medical advice.​

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from light. Keep out of children's reach.​

• No significant food interactions. Can be taken without regard to meals.​

• Neuromuscular Blockers: Potentiates effects; risk of respiratory paralysis.

• Loop Diuretics (Furosemide): Increases nephrotoxicity risk.

• Other Aminoglycosides: Additive kidney and ear toxicity; avoid concurrent use.

• Potent Diuretics: Dehydration increases toxicity risk.​

• Kidney Disease: Primary excretion route; dose adjustment and monitoring are essential to prevent toxicity.​

• Hearing Loss/Ototoxicity History: High risk of permanent hearing damage; baseline audiometry required.

• Myasthenia Gravis: May worsen muscle weakness due to neuromuscular blockade.

• Parkinson's Disease: Risk of neurotoxicity and worsening symptoms.​

• Adults: 15 mg/kg/day (max 1.5g/day) in divided doses.

• Neonates/Children: 15-22.5 mg/kg/day.

Dosing adjusted by blood levels and kidney function.​

Symptoms include kidney failure, hearing loss, and paralysis. Action Required: Seek emergency medical care immediately; hemodialysis may be needed.

Administered by healthcare professionals. Follow the hospital dosing schedule strictly.
