This medication is contraindicated for individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of its components. If you have a known allergy to antibiotics, inform your physician. An overdose of Injection may cause seizure-like symptoms, so it’s important to tell your doctor if you have a history of seizures or epilepsy. Additionally, this medication may cause antibiotic-associated diarrhea, which can range from mild to severe.
