Rocephin 1gm I.M. Vial Ingredients and Usage
How Does Rocephin 1gm I.M. Vial Work?
Ceftriaxone works by inhibiting the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. It binds to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the bacterial cell wall. This binding prevents the cross-linking of peptidoglycan chains, which are essential for the structural integrity of the wall. Without a functional cell wall, the bacteria become unstable and eventually undergo osmotic lysis (bursting). This bactericidal action is effective against a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms.Rocephin 1gm I.M. Vial Side Effects
