How to Order:
Ceftriaxone Sodium Injection 1 Gram Single-Dose Vial 15 mL is an antibiotic medication used to treat bacterial infections. It is a single-dose vial containing 1 gram of ceftriaxone sodium powder, which is mixed with sterile water for injection before administration. The vial contains 15 mL of solution, which is typically administered intravenously. This medication is commonly used to treat infections such as pneumonia, skin and skin structure infections, and sexually transmitted diseases. It is only available with a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider.
Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that works by interfering with the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. It does this by binding to and inhibiting the activity of an enzyme called penicillin-binding protein (PBP), which is responsible for cross-linking the peptidoglycan chains in the bacterial cell wall. This weakens the cell wall, making the bacteria more susceptible to damage and eventually leading to cell death.
Ceftriaxone has a broad spectrum of activity, meaning it is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections. It is primarily used to treat infections caused by gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including those that are resistant to other types of antibiotics.
When administered intravenously, ceftriaxone is quickly distributed throughout the body and reaches high concentrations in the blood, tissues, and body fluids, making it an effective treatment for serious infections. It has a long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing, and is eliminated primarily through the kidneys.
Overall, the mechanism of action for ceftriaxone sodium injection involves disrupting the bacterial cell wall and preventing the growth and reproduction of bacteria, ultimately treating the infection.
