Description
OVERXON-S is an injectable antibiotic that contains Ceftriaxone and Sulbactam. It is used to treat moderate to severe bacterial infections. This combination works effectively against a wide range of bacteria, including some bacteria that are resistant to many antibiotics. Ceftriaxone is a third-generation antibiotic that kills bacteria by stopping them from building their protective cell wall. Sulbactam helps Ceftriaxone work better by blocking the enzymes that some bacteria produce to resist antibiotics. Together, they provide stronger protection against bacterial infections and improve treatment results.
