Verified Ingredients and Effects

Uses:

Bbcef S 1000mg/500mg Injection is used in the treatment of bacterial infections.

Medicinal Benefits:

Bbcef S 1000mg/500mg Injection contains Ceftazidime, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, and Sulbactam, a beta-lactamase inhibitor. Ceftazidime works by inhibiting the bacterial cell wall, a structure essential for bacterial survival. This disruption weakens the cell wall, leading to the death of the bacteria. Beta-lactamase is an enzyme some bacteria produce that deactivates antibiotics, contributing to drug resistance. Sulbactam helps reduce this resistance while enhancing the effectiveness of Ceftazidime against bacteria. Together, Bbcef S 1000mg/500mg Injection helps treat bacterial infections.
