Damclid 300 Inj

Damclid 300 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. 

Damclid 300 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. Damclid 300 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.

Damclid 300 Inj will be administered by a healthcare professional. Damclid 300 Inj may cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Common side effects of Damclid 300 Inj include stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, heartburn, skin rash, pain and swelling at the injection site, and vaginal itching or discharge. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Brief your medical history to the doctor if you are allergic to any of the components in Damclid 300 Inj. Let your doctor know if you have any liver disease, kidney disease, yellow food dye allergy, colitis (colon inflammation), severe stomach cramps, diarrhoea, and allergic conditions (asthma, hay fever, eczema). Do not use Damclid 300 Inj while getting vaccinated with live bacterial vaccines (typhoid vaccine) since Damclid 300 Inj may affect the vaccine's activity. Damclid 300 Inj should be used only with a doctor's advice during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Damclid 300 Inj is an antibiotic that treats severe/serious bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which inhibits bacterial growth. It shows a bacteriostatic effect, which stops bacterial reproduction but doesn't kill them. Damclid 300 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. Damclid 300 Inj is useful in treating 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.

Do not use Damclid 300 Inj if you are allergic to any of its components. Let your doctor know if you have any liver or kidney diseases, gastrointestinal diseases (colitis, Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea), yellow food dye allergy, and allergic conditions (asthma, hay fever, eczema). Do not use Damclid 300 Inj while getting vaccinated with live bacterial vaccines (typhoid vaccine) since Damclid 300 Inj may affect the vaccine's activity. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Damclid 300 Inj. Avoid alcohol consumption to prevent any undesired effects while using Damclid 300 Inj.

• Liver and kidney function monitoring (Liver and kidney function tests) are recommended in patients with severe liver and kidney diseases.
• Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD) is reported during the usage of antibiotics. Please consult your doctor if you experience prolonged diarrhoea.
