What is Fosfomycin used for?

Fomicyt is primarily used for the treatment of severe bacterial infections. It is often prescribed for conditions where other antibiotics may not be effective, such as complicated urinary tract infections or certain systemic infections. The active ingredient, fosfomycin, works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, which helps to stop the growth and spread of bacteria.

Fomicyt should be used with caution in patients with known allergies to fosfomycin or any of its components.

What does Fosfomycin interact with?

Fomicyt may interact with certain medications, including other antibiotics and drugs that affect kidney function.
