How does Cefepime: 2 grams, Sulbactam: 1 gram work in the body?

Cefepime first inhibits the formation of bacterial cell walls, which leads to the elimination of bacteria from the body. The medicine will work on the positive and negative (gram bacteria) and covers a wide range of organisms that withstand other bacterial medicines.

Bacteria produce the beta-lactamase enzymes, and these can cause the infection to grow. These bacteria are neutralized by sulbactam, which stops them from proliferating and attacking the immune system. By eliminating the germs, Sulbactum safeguards the other medication’s ability to work.

Doctors administer this medicine in combination to provide relief from a wide range of bacteria that cause infections to spread.

Doctors use it to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs), abdominal infections, soft tissue infections, blood infections, respiratory tract infections, post-surgery infections, and other related conditions. They prescribe it when regular and commonly used medicines fail to work.
