How To Use Nebcin
NEBCIN: NEBCIN may be given intravenously diluted in fluid and given slowly over 20 to 30 minutes into a vein or injected into a large muscle such as a buttock or hip. . Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. Do this by taking the medication at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day and night as prescribed.

Stopping the medication too early may allow bacteria to continue to grow resulting in a relapse of the infection.
