Used For:
- Vinjec Injection 500mg contains vancomycin, an antibiotic used to treat severe bacterial infections. It is commonly used for infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, including:
- Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
- Severe skin infections
- Bone and joint infections

Side Effects:
- Common side effects may include redness and pain at the injection site, nausea, and abdominal pain.
- Some patients might experience kidney dysfunction, low blood pressure, or dizziness.
- Other potential side effects can include fever, chills, and flushing of the upper body ("red man syndrome").
- In rare cases, severe side effects such as allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, difficulty breathing), hearing loss, or severe kidney damage may occur, particularly with prolonged use or high doses.
Precautions:
- Before using Vinjec Injection 500mg, inform your doctor if you have any known allergies, medical conditions (especially kidney disease, hearing problems, or intestinal disorders), or if you are taking any other medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
- This medication should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment, as vancomycin can be nephrotoxic (harmful to the kidneys).
- Regular monitoring of kidney function, blood levels of the drug, and hearing is important during treatment, especially in patients with pre-existing kidney conditions.
- This medication is usually administered in a healthcare setting by a professional, and the infusion rate may need to be adjusted to avoid side effects like "red man syndrome."
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this medication.
