Medicinal Benefits:

Ceftahet AV Combipack Injection 1's contains Ceftazidime and Avibactam; they act against both aerobic (grow in the presence of oxygen) and anaerobic (grow in the absence of oxygen) gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. It is used in the treatment of bacterial infections of the urinary tract, respiratory tract, and abdomen. Ceftazidime inhibits enzymes that regulate the formation of the bacterial cell wall, thereby arresting bacterial development. Avibactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. Beta-lactamase is an enzyme that inactivates antibiotics and builds up a drug resistance. By inhibiting beta-lactamase, avibactam makes the bacteria more susceptible to antibiotic action. Ceftahet AV Combipack Injection 1's damages the bacterial cell wall, kills bacteria and makes the bacteria more sensitive to the action of the antibiotic. Hence Ceftahet AV Combipack Injection 1's finds widespread use in treating complicated bacterial infections.

If a bacterial infection is not treated, the bacteria can continue to grow and spread throughout the body. This may lead to serious health complications, such as damage to vital organs or tissues. In severe cases, it can result in sepsis (a life-threatening, body-wide infection). Additionally, the infection may become harder to treat over time, as the bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics. It is important to seek medical treatment to prevent these risks and help your body recover.
