Cefnest 1 GM Injection 1 works in the human body in the following ways:

• Cefoperazone (1000 mg): Cefoperazone inhibits the synthesis of bacterial cell walls by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the cell walls. This activity eventually leads to bacterial cell lysis, which causes the bacteria's death.

• Sulbactam (500 mg): This ingredient is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It blocks the activity of beta-lactamase enzymes, preventing them from destroying beta-lactam antibiotics like cephalosporins. This, in turn, enhances the effectiveness of cefoperazone against bacteria.

• Store Cefnest 1 GM Injection 1 below 25°C.

• Protect the vials from light and moisture to maintain their efficacy.

• Keep the product out of children's reach.

• Always check the expiry date before use, and avoid using any injection past its expiry date.

• If you have a respiratory or urinary tract infection, drinking plenty of fluids can help flush bacteria out of your system. Fluids like water or herbal teas can also help manage these conditions.

• Maintaining good hygiene is crucial for skin and soft tissue infections. Regularly clean affected areas with mild soap and water to prevent further bacterial growth.
