How it works:
Ceftriaxone (in Seacure-AQ Injection) works by:
Ceftriaxone functions by inhibiting the formation of bacterial cell walls, thereby preventing bacteria from forming a protective cell wall.
This makes the bacterial cell weaker and leads it to burst, which kills the germs.
It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, which means it works against a lot of different types of bacteria, both Gram-positive and Gram-negative.
