Covatil 750 MG Injection 5 ML contains Cefuroxime (750 MG), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Bacterial Cell Wall Inhibition: Cefuroxime inhibits the synthesis of bacterial cell walls by inactivating penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) that are situated on the inner membrane of the cell wall. This stops the cross-linkage of peptidoglycan chains, which are needed for bacterial cell wall strength and rigidity.

• Induction of Cell Lysis: The inhibition of the bacterial cell wall leads to its weakening and causes cell lysis i.e., disintegration or rupture of the cell wall, leading to the death of bacteria.

• Stability Against Beta-lactamases: A distinctive feature of cefuroxime is its stability against certain beta-lactamases produced by bacteria, which would typically inactivate many penicillins and cephalosporins.
