Ceftocid Plus Injection is a powerful dual-combination veterinary antibiotic formulated with Ceftriaxone Sodium and Sulbactam for the effective treatment of moderate to severe bacterial infections in livestock. This advanced formulation is specially designed to combat resistant and stubborn pathogens that fail to respond to single-antibiotic therapy.
🧪 Composition
- Sterile Ceftriaxone Sodium – A third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis
- Sterile Sulbactam – A β-lactamase inhibitor that expands and protects ceftriaxone’s antibacterial activity
🔬 This synergistic combination ensures high efficacy against Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and β-lactamase–producing bacteria.
⚙️ Mode of Action
- Ceftriaxone disrupts bacterial cell wall formation, leading to rapid bacterial death.
- Sulbactam neutralizes β-lactamase enzymes produced by resistant bacteria, preventing antibiotic degradation.
Together, they provide extended-spectrum antibacterial coverage, ensuring quicker relief, reduced inflammation, and improved treatment outcomes.
