Ceftriaxone & Sulbactam Injection is a combination antibacterial medicine containing Ceftriaxone and Sulbactam. It is used for the treatment of certain serious or complicated bacterial infections caused by susceptible microorganisms. Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, while Sulbactam helps protect the antibiotic from certain beta-lactamase enzymes produced by bacteria.
Ceftriaxone works by interfering with bacterial cell-wall formation, thereby stopping the growth of susceptible bacteria. Sulbactam acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor and can help extend the antibacterial activity of Ceftriaxone against certain beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. The combination may be used in different clinical situations based on the type and severity of infection.
