About Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj

Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj belongs to the class of 'antibiotics', primarily used to treat serious bacterial infections such as lower respiratory tract infections like pneumonia, empyema, and lung abscess; gynaecological infections like endometritis, nongonococcal tubo-ovarian abscess, pelvic cellulitis, and postsurgical vaginal cuff infection; intra-abdominal infections; septicaemia or sepsis (blood poisoning by bacteria), and bone and joint infections. Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes illness. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. 

Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj contains 'Clindamycin' that works by preventing bacterial protein synthesis, leading to the inhibition of bacterial growth. It shows a bacteriostatic effect that stops bacterial reproduction. Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj effectively treats infections caused by gram-positive and anaerobic (living without air) bacteria, including susceptible strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Clostridium perfringens.

Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj will be administered by a healthcare professional. Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj may cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.

  • Avoid sharing personal items like shaving razors.
  • Include whole-grain foods like multigrain bread and brown rice in your diet. 
  • Taking probiotics after an antibiotic treatment reduces the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. 
  • Try taking yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, and kimchi that help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet that is easily digested by your gut bacteria. Fibre foods may also help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics.

CLINDAMYCIN-300MGOther bacterial intestinal infections
Severe
How does the disease interact with Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj:
Almost all antibacterial medications have been associated with reports of Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD), formerly known as pseudomembranous colitis. It can vary from mild diarrhoea to deadly colitis.

How to manage the interaction:
Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) ranging from mild diarrhoea to colitis has been reported during treatment with antibacterial agents. Therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis and pseudomembranous colitis. Appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, and antibacterial treatment of C difficile is advised.
CLINDAMYCIN-300MGDisorders related to short gestation and low birth weight, not elsewhere classified
Severe
How does the disease interact with Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj:
Benzyl alcohol is frequently used as a preservative in the formulation of multidose vials for parenteral medicines. Manufacturers of pharmaceuticals believe that using them in neonates, especially preterm and underweight newborns, is contraindicated. In low birth weight preterm newborns, the use of benzyl alcohol in bacteriostatic saline intravascular flush and endotracheal tube lavage solutions has been linked to mortality and serious respiratory and metabolic problems.

How to manage the interaction:
Parenteral medications containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative are contraindicated in neonates, particularly premature infants and infants of low birth weight.
CLINDAMYCIN-300MGOther diseases of liver
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj:
The liver is the primary site of Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj metabolism. Patients with significantly impaired hepatic function may have a rise in the blood concentration of Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj and a prolongation of the half-life. Additionally, the drug's usage may result in abnormal liver enzyme levels and jaundice. Patients with liver problems should receive Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj therapy with caution. When given every 8 hours, dosage modifications might not be required. However, with high-dose therapy, serum concentrations should be observed, and during prolonged therapy, regular liver function tests should be carried out.

How to manage the interaction:
Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj is primarily metabolized by the liver. Therapy with Clinycin 300Mg/2Ml Inj should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease. Serum concentrations should be monitored during high-dose therapy, and periodic liver function tests should be performed during prolonged therapy.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Bacterial infection: It occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes illness. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. Bacteria may be gram-positive (have a thick cell wall) or gram-negative (do not have a cell wall). Some common symptoms of a bacterial infection include cough, fever, shortness of breath, chills, muscle pain, fatigue, and tiredness. Untreated bacterial infections may lead to serious life-threatening conditions like sepsis.
