Ceftriaxone- This chemical composition comes in the category of cephalosporin antibiotics and this chemical inhibits the cell wall synthesis in bacteria. Bacteria are single-cellular organisms that protect their main cell by making cell walls around it. But when this composition inhibits the bacterial cell wall then this main cell is unable to survive in normal atmospheric pressure and die.
Sulbactam- This one also one of the main chemical compositions of this drug which weakens the bacteria resistance part. Generally, bacteria are very smart organisms they can create resistance against antibiotics, and when they do that the bacteria become immune to that antibiotic.
