Tigestat 50mg Injection

Tigestat 50mg Injection is an antibiotic used to treat a range of serious bacterial infections by eliminating the bacteria responsible for the infection and helping the body recover.

• Complicated skin and skin structure infections: Helps by clearing deep-seated skin infections, preventing the bacteria from spreading further into body tissues.
