Mikacin 100mg Injection 100 mg

Mikacin Injection from Aristo Pharmaceuticals contains amikacin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic used in hospitals to treat serious bacterial infections that may not respond to other antibiotics.

• Treats severe bacterial infections of the blood, lungs, urinary tract and abdomen
• Used for hospital-acquired infections and certain skin or bone infections
• Sometimes used alongside other antibiotics for tuberculosis

Amikacin binds to bacterial ribosomes and blocks the protein-making machinery the bacteria need to grow. Without those proteins, the bacteria die. It works mainly against Gram-negative organisms.

Given by a trained healthcare professional as an injection into a muscle or vein, as prescribed by your doctor.
