    FAQs Q 1. What infections does Foephos 4gm Injection treat?

    Foephos 4gm Injection is primarily used to treat uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by certain susceptible bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli (E. coli), which is a common pathogen responsible for UTIs. It may also be prescribed for other bacterial infections, but its use is generally limited to UTIs.

    Foephos 4gm Injection is available in several forms, including oral granules, sachets, and intravenous (IV) preparations. For uncomplicated UTIs, it is often given as a single oral dose. A course of IV treatment may be prescribed for more severe or complicated infections.

    Q 3. Can Foephos 4gm Injection be used to prevent UTIs?

    Foephos 4gm Injection is primarily used for the treatment of UTIs, not for prevention. If you experience recurrent UTIs, your physician may suggest other preventive measures or medications.

    Q 4. Is Foephos 4gm Injection effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria?

    Foephos 4gm Injection can still be effective against some antibiotic-resistant bacteria, including certain strains of multidrug-resistant E. coli. However, susceptibility testing is necessary to determine if the specific bacterial strain causing the infection is susceptible to this drug.

    Q 5. Can I drink alcohol while taking Foephos 4gm Injection?

    It is generally recommended to avoid alcohol consumption while taking antibiotics, including Foephos 4gm Injection. Alcohol can interfere with the effectiveness of antibiotics and may also exacerbate certain side effects.
