One of the active substances is Cefoperazone, which belongs to the group of medications called third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics.

This drug is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to it or its component. Report your physician if you are allergic to any antibiotic group. Consumption of alcohol (including alcoholic beverages, medications containing alcohol, mouthwashes, or food preparations) during and up to the fifth day after administration can result in a disulfiram-like reaction.

Therapeutic Effects of Kezone-s Forte 3gm Injection
Cefoperazone is an antibiotic that works by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to the destruction of the bacteria. Sulbactam, the beta-lactamase inhibitor, helps inactivate the beta-lactamase enzymes produced by certain bacteria. This prevents the breakdown of cefoperazone by these enzymes, enhancing its effectiveness against resistant bacteria.
