About this product

Overview

Zinforo 600mg Injection contains the active ingredient Ceftaroline Fosamil, which is a cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It is administered via injection and is effective against a broad spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Active Ingredient

Ceftaroline Fosamil: This antibiotic works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to bacterial cell death. It exhibits activity against various pathogens, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Streptococcus pneumoniae.

  • Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections (ABSSSI): Including cellulitis and wound infections.
  • Nosocomial Pneumonia (NP): Including infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens.

Mechanism of Action

Ceftaroline Fosamil acts by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) on bacterial cell walls, disrupting cell wall synthesis, and leading to cell lysis and death. It exhibits bactericidal activity against a wide range of susceptible bacteria.
