Cefoperazone 1gm + Tazobactam 125mg Injection

Cefoperazone and tazobactam are a combination of medications used in the treatment of various bacterial infections.

Cefoperazone is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, thereby preventing the growth and spread of bacteria. It is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Tazobactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that is often combined with cefoperazone to enhance its activity. Beta-lactamases are enzymes produced by some bacteria that can inactivate antibiotics like cephalosporins. Tazobactam works by inhibiting these enzymes, allowing cefoperazone to exert its antibacterial effects effectively.

The combination of cefoperazone and tazobactam is typically used in the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections, complicated urinary tract infections, and lower respiratory tract infections caused by susceptible bacteria.

As with any medication, cefoperazone and tazobactam may have potential side effects and drug interactions. Common side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache, and allergic reactions.
