About Olinc Injection 300mg

Olinc Injection 300mg Uses

Drug Class

• Lincosamide antibiotic

What Experts Say

Lincomycin stops bacteria from making the proteins they need to grow, which helps the body clear the infection.

It is reserved for patients with serious infections who cannot take penicillin, and it is given by injection under medical supervision rather than at home.

Diarrhea during or after treatment needs prompt medical attention, since lincosamide antibiotics carry a real risk of severe colitis.
