Cefoperazone is effective when taken at the prescribed dose and duration. Do not discontinue use prematurely, as this may cause symptoms to return or worsen.
Cefoperazone is not harmful to the kidneys when used alone, but it may increase the risk of kidney damage when combined with aminoglycosides or other cephalosporins. Use it only as prescribed by your doctor.

If you miss a dose of Cefoperazone, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not double the dose to compensate, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
