Cefixime and Sulbactam are present in FIXSAL TABLET . Cefixime is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that kills both aerobic (grow in the presence of oxygen) and anaerobic (grow in the absence of oxygen) gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. It disrupts the production of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering required for survival). As a result, the bacterial cell wall is damaged, and bacteria are killed. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor; the inclusion of Sulbactam extends the cefixime spectrum of action to beta-lactamase-producing strains of bacteria. Thus FIXSAL TABLET effectively treats a wide range of bacterial infections.
