How it works:
Ceftriaxone and Sulbactam make up Omna XP Injection:
Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that kills bacteria by stopping cell wall formation, which kills the bacteria.
Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that stops bacteria from breaking down Ceftriaxone, which makes it work better against germs that are resistant to it.
They work together to protect against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

Loop diuretics (furosemide) could have an effect on how well the kidneys work.
IV solutions that contain calcium may make Ceftriaxone produce precipitates.
