Pen-C

Pen-C Injection is a broad-spectrum antibiotic designed to combat a wide range of bacterial infections in animals. It combines Amoxicillin, a potent aminopenicillin effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with Cloxacillin, a penicillinase-resistant antibiotic that provides strong activity against beta-lactamase-producing staphylococci. This combination delivers a synergistic effect, making Pen-C especially effective in treating mixed infections and providing reliable therapeutic coverage.

Each mL contains:

  • Amoxicillin (as trihydrate) – 100 mg

  • Cloxacillin (as sodium) – 50 mg

Pen-C is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is recommended for the treatment of:

  • Mastitis caused by Staphylococcus spp., Staphylococcus agalactiae, Staphylococcus dysgalactiae, Corynebacterium pyogenes, and E. coli

  • Gastroenteritis

  • Respiratory tract infections

  • Urogenital tract infections, including metritis

  • Septicemia

  • Wound infections

Pen-C Injection combines two penicillin-type antibiotics: Amoxicillin and Cloxacillin.

  • Amoxicillin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, effectively killing a broad range of bacteria.

  • Cloxacillin specifically targets bacteria that produce penicillinase, an enzyme that makes many bacteria resistant to common antibiotics.

Together, they deliver broad-spectrum and synergistic antibacterial action, including effectiveness against resistant strains.
