Hello everyone!

Does someone know if IM rocephin is as efective as IV rocephin?
Are there any publish medical studies about this?
Also, is there any diference in potency if you get 2 grs/day at once or if you split the dose on 1 gr/twice a day?

Thank you, lymster in WA.

IV will provide higher plasma levels than IM. Effectivness depends on what it is treating and where in the body.
