C-One SB 375 Injection (16x25x1g m) Ceftriaxone 250 mg, Sulbactam 125 mg Inj by Abbott

What is it used for?
This injection is used to treat serious bacterial infections, such as infections of the lungs, urinary tract, abdomen, skin, blood, bones and joints, when prescribed by a doctor. It does not work against viral infections such as colds or flu.

How does it work?
Ceftriaxone kills bacteria by preventing them from forming their protective cell wall. Sulbactam helps ceftriaxone work against certain bacteria that can otherwise resist some antibiotics.

How to take/use it
