Ivimax 500/250 MG Injection 1 comprises two active ingredients:

• Cefotaxime (500 mg): As a member of the cephalosporin group of antibiotics, cefotaxime functions by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. It attaches itself to and deactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), which are vital for the final stage of constructing bacterial cell walls.

• Sulbactam (250 mg): Acting as a beta-lactamase inhibitor, sulbactam irreversibly obstructs most clinically significant beta-lactamases produced by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. By disabling these beta-lactamases, sulbactam safeguards cefotaxime from being broken down and broadens its antibacterial spectrum to encompass many bacteria that produce beta-lactamase.

• Always check the expiry date before using the product.

• If you have a urinary tract infection (UTI), drinking plenty of water can help flush out the bacteria causing the infection.

• For those managing respiratory conditions like pneumonia, it's helpful to avoid smoking or being around smoke as it can make symptoms worse.
