A man admitted to Colombo National Hospital with burn injuries has died reportedly after being injected with an antibiotic.

An inquiry is underway into the incident, said hospital director Dr. Kumara Wickremasinghe.

He said it is yet to be determined if the cause of the 31-year-old’s death was the cefuroxime sodium he was injected with.

Dr. Wickremasinghe added the particular batch of that antibiotic has been taken out of use as a precautionary measure.
