Expert advice:
Don't give it to yourself; always have a doctor do it.
Finish the whole course, even if you feel better, to stop antibiotic resistance.
If you see any signs of an allergic response, like a rash, itching, or swelling, tell your doctor.

How to use:
Only skilled medical workers can provide it through an IV or IM.
The kind and severity of the infection will determine the dose and length of time.

Even if your symptoms go better, don't stop therapy too soon.
Follow the directions your doctor gives you for taking care of yourself after the injection.
How it works:
1.5 gram of Novacef 1.5gm Injection, a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, is in the injection.
It kills bacteria and stops them from growing by stopping the formation of the bacterial cell wall.
This process helps get rid of the illness and stops it from spreading to other parts of the body.
