💊 Mechanism of Action
• Cefoperazone: A third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, leading to cell lysis and death. Sulbactam: A beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects cefoperazone from enzymatic degradation by bacterial beta-lactamases, thereby enhancing its antibacterial activity.
