G-Clox 500mg provides a highly specific, penicillinase-resistant therapy. As an injectable Cloxacillin formulation, it maintains its structural integrity against bacterial enzymes, successfully destroying the bacterial cell wall and clearing severe staph infections in hospital environments.
How to Use / Operate
Must be reconstituted with sterile water for injection and administered by a qualified doctor or nurse via slow IV injection (over 3-4 minutes) or deep IM injection according to hospital clinical protocols.
