About Krishbactum Injection

Krishbactum Injection belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat various bacterial infections such as respiratory tract (lungs) infection, urine infection, blood infection, meningitis (inflammation of the brain and spinal cord), gonorrhoea (sexually transmitted disease), skin, abdominal, bone, and joint infections. Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Krishbactum Injection does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.

Krishbactum Injection is a combination of two antibiotics, namely: Cefoperazone (cephalosporin antibiotic) and sulbactam (beta-lactamase inhibitor). Cefoperazone works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for their survival. Thereby, kills the bacteria. On the other hand, sulbactam works by decreasing bacterial resistance and enhancing the activity of cefoperazone against the bacteria. Together, Krishbactum Injection helps to treat bacterial infections.

Most of these side effects of Krishbactum Injection do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Consult your doctor before taking Krishbactum Injection if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Probiotics should be taken after taking the full course of Krishbactum Injection in order to restore some healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha, and kimchi can help to restore the good bacteria of the intestine.

  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread, brown rice should be included in your diet.

  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with Krishbactum Injection as it can make you dehydrated and may affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid the Krishbactum Injection in fighting off infections.
