Nezkil 200mg Injection contains the active ingredient Linezolid, which is an antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections. Linezolid belongs to a class of antibiotics known as oxazolidinones and works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby stopping the growth and spread of bacteria. It is administered intravenously as an injection.

  • Pneumonia: Nezkil 200mg Injection may also be prescribed for the treatment of pneumonia, including community-acquired pneumonia and hospital-acquired pneumonia.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Nezkil 200mg Injection is determined by the healthcare provider based on the type and severity of the infection, as well as the patient’s age, weight, and renal function.
