How ceftriaxone injection works on bacterial infection?

Ceftriaxone injection is a broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, targeting the penicillin-binding proteins that bacteria need to build their protective cell walls. This disruption weakens the cell wall, causing the bacteria to burst and die. The ceftriaxone injection is effective against various gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, treating infections like pneumonia, meningitis, and urinary tract infections. Administered intravenously or intramuscularly, ceftriaxone injection ensures rapid delivery into the bloodstream, achieving high concentrations at infection sites. Its long half-life allows once- or twice-daily dosing, enhancing patient compliance and treatment efficacy.
