How Araiper S 250mg/125mg Injection Works

Araiper S 250mg/125mg Injection contains Ceftriaxone and Sulbactam. Ceftriaxone: It is an antibiotic that blocks the formation of the bacterial cell wall. This weakens the protective structure of bacteria, causing them to break down and die, which helps stop the infection from spreading. Sulbactam: It acts as a protective agent that blocks beta-lactamase enzymes produced by some bacteria. By preventing these enzymes from breaking down the antibiotic, sulbactam helps ceftriaxone work effectively against resistant bacteria.

Araiper S 250mg/125mg Injection is used to treat bacterial infections.
Araiper S 250mg/125mg Injection contains Ceftriaxone and Sulbactam. Ceftriaxone reduces the infection by inhibiting bacterial growth. It disrupts the formation of the cell wall (outer layer), which is essential for bacteria's survival. Sulbactam inhibits the action of beta-lactamase, an enzyme bacteria produce to destroy antibiotics. Sulbactam enhances the activity of ceftriaxone.
Common side effects of Araiper S 250mg/125mg Injection are pain and swelling at the injection site, skin rash, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and black/tarry stools.
