HOW MONOCEF 250MG INJECTION WORKS
MONOCEF
250MG INJECTION contains ceftriaxone, which is a second-generation
cephalosporin that interferes with the synthesis of the bacterial cell
wall by binding to specific binding proteins located inside the
bacterial cell wall. This leads to breaking down the cell wall of the
bacteria and reducing its stability, thus causing cell damage and
eventually causing bacterial elimination.
