Tobramycin (120mg) + Ceftazidime (1000mg)
Active composition
+1 more active ingredient
Tobramycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacteria, inhibiting protein synthesis and leading to bacterial cell death.
Ceftazidime binds to penicillin-binding proteins, disrupting bacterial cell wall synthesis and causing cell death.
Medical applications
Metacef-TC Injection is a potent combination antibiotic formulation containing Ceftazidime 1000 mg and Tobramycin 120 mg, designed for the treatment of serious bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms. Ceftazidime, a third-generation cephalosporin, exhibits broad-spectrum bactericidal activity by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, particularly effective against Gram-negative pathogens including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, complements this action by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, disrupting protein synthesis and exerting a synergistic effect against resistant strains. Metacef-TC Injection is indicated for severe infections such as lower respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, septicemia, skin and soft tissue infections, and bone and joint infections where polymicrobial or resistant organisms are suspected. The combination enhances antimicrobial efficacy and reduces the likelihood of resistance development. Administration is typically parenteral, with dosing individualized based on infection severity, patient renal function, and clinical response. Caution is advised in patients with renal impairment, and monitoring of renal function and auditory capacity is recommended due to the nephrotoxic and ototoxic potential of aminoglycosides. Metacef-TC Injection should be used under strict medical supervision to ensure optimal therapeutic outcomes and minimize adverse effects.
How to use Metacef-TC Injection Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.
Important precautions
Based on clinical trials and patient reports.

Medical Advice
Metacef-TC Injection may decrease alertness, affect your vision or make you feel sleepy and dizzy. Do not drive if these symptoms occur.
Exercise Caution
Metacef-TC Injection should be used with caution in patients with severe liver disease. Dose adjustment of Metacef-TC Injection may be needed. Please consult your doctor.
Regular Checkup
Metacef-TC Injection is safe to use during breastfeeding. Human studies suggest that the drug does not pass into the breastmilk in a significant amount and is not harmful to the baby.
Consult Doctor
