How MEXAXON-S 750 Works

Ceftriaxone belongs to the cephalosporin group of antibiotics. It works by interfering with bacterial cell-wall formation, which can stop susceptible bacteria from growing and surviving.

Sulbactam acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor. In addition, it can help protect certain beta-lactam antibiotics from enzymes produced by some bacteria.

Therefore, the combination may improve antibacterial activity against susceptible bacteria that produce beta-lactamase enzymes.
