Side effects Abdominal pain Diarrhea Injection site inflammation Nausea and vomiting Skin rash Leukopenia Thrombocytopenia Decrease appetite Swelling of tongue and throat Difficulty in breathing
Serious side effects Major hypersensitivity Drugged induce immune hemolytic anemia pseudomembraneous colitis ( swelling or inflammation of the large intestine) Suppression of gut flora that leads to reduction in vitamin k synthesis Bleeding
Adverse effects Cephalosporins are one of the leading cause of perioperative anaphylaxis and severe cutaneous adhere reactions. Less severe adhere effects include . - stomach discomfort . - Nausea or vomiting . - Diarrhea . - fungal infections - injection site reactions
Toxicity Cephalosporin have low toxicity and are generally safe. The most common adhere reactions from cephalosporin are nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, and abdominal pain, etc.
