Please stop using Ceftriaxone as antipain😁 Ceftriaxone is not a magic drug! Someone has fever? “Give ceftriaxone!” Someone has typhoid? “Give ceftriaxone!” Someone has malaria? “Add ceftriaxone!” PLEASE, LET’S STOP USING CEFTRIAXONE LIKE IT CURES EVERYTHING. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW: - Ceftriaxone is an antibiotic. It treats certain bacterial infections. - It does not treat malaria or viral infections. - Not every bacterial infection requires ceftriaxone. - Using antibiotics when they are not needed can contribute to antibiotic resistance. - The right antibiotic depends on the suspected infection, the bacteria involved, the person's age and condition, allergies, and sometimes laboratory results. - An injection does not automatically mean the medicine is stronger or better than tablets. WHEN CEFTRIAXONE MAY BE CONSIDERED: -Physicians may use ceftriaxone for certain serious bacterial infections, depending on the diagnosis and clinical situation. THE BIG MISTAKE: Don't say: “Ceftriaxone is strong, so it will cure whatever is making them sick.” The question should be: “What infection am I treating, and is ceftriaxone actually appropriate for it?” STRONG MEDICINE IS NOT THE SAME AS RIGHT MEDICINE. And please don't buy or inject ceftriaxone simply because someone online said it is the “strongest” antibiotic. Pharmacist Kenenisa S. @pharmprofesion 💊
