BENZIGEM EZ 1000 VIAL

About

BENZIGEM EZ 1000 VIAL contains a broad-spectrum penicillin-class antibiotic, typically formulated for intravenous administration. This medication works by interfering with the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to the lysis and death of susceptible bacteria. Often, it is combined with a beta-lactamase inhibitor to extend its spectrum of activity against bacteria that produce enzymes to inactivate penicillins. This combination makes it highly effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including many anaerobic organisms. It is commonly used in hospital settings for treating serious infections, such as complicated intra-abdominal infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and pneumonia, providing robust antimicrobial coverage.
