Expert Advice

• Thaw the frozen pre-mixed solution bag in the fridge or at room temperature if you’re using it. Allow at least 1 hour for the bag to come to room temperature once it has been defrosted in the refrigerator. Do not thaw in a boiling water or in the microwave. After melting, give the bag a good shake and squeeze to check for leakage. If the bag leaks, throw the solution. After thawing, do not freeze the solution again.
• Take Cefotaxime at regular intervals for best results. Take this medicine every day at the same time so that you do not forget to take a dose.
• Even if your symptoms go away within a few days, keep taking Cefotaxime for the whole duration recommended. Stopping the treatment too soon may cause the infection to recur.
• If your issue persists or worsens, notify your doctor.
• It should be kept at room temperature
• Keep the medicine out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not use it after the expiration date has passed.
