About Dencip TZ Suspension

Dencip TZ Suspension is a combination medicine that is primarily used to treat a wide variety of infections which are caused by susceptible Gram-positive organisms, Gram-negative organisms, anaerobes and protozoa. Gram-positive organisms cause bacterial infections such as inflammatory diseases, including skin infections, pneumonia (infection in which there is inflammation of the air sacs in one or both lungs), endocarditis (infection of the inner lining of the heart chamber and heart valves), septic arthritis (inflammation of joints due to infection), osteomyelitis (infection of the bone) and abscesses (collection of pus caused by bacterial infection). Gram-negative organisms, on the other hand, cause infections like pneumonia, bloodstream infections, wound or surgical site infections and meningitis (inflammation of membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord). Anaerobes are responsible for causing skin and soft tissue infections. Examples of infection caused by protozoa include dysentery (inflammation of the colon) and malaria.

Dencip TZ Suspension is a combination of two antibiotics that include Ciprofloxacin and Tinidazole. Ciprofloxacin prevents the division of bacterial cells. It also inhibits the repairing of bacterial cells. Both these actions lead to the killing of the bacteria. Tinidazole kills parasites and anaerobic bacteria that are responsible for causing infections. It works by damaging their DNA.

Dencip TZ Suspension should be taken in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. It is advised to take it with food and should be taken at a fixed time to achieve maximum effect. In some cases, you may experience nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, headache, etc. Most of these side effects of Dencip TZ Suspension do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor. If you experience any symptoms of an allergic reaction such as rashes, itching, swelling, shortness of breath, etc., please consult your doctor immediately.

It is not advisable to stop this medicine suddenly to avoid unpleasant side effects. Inform your doctor if you have any lung disease, muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis), sleeping disorder or difficulty in sleeping (sleep apnoea), severe liver disease, or problem with alcohol or other prescription recreational drugs. Inform your doctor if you are planning to get pregnant, are pregnant or breastfeeding. Also, tell your doctor if you are allergic to this medicine.
