The combination of Cefoperazone and Sulbactam ensures an effective broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. Zostum 1.5gm can be used in a hospital setting or prescribed for severe infections that require immediate and potent action. This product supports recovery by eliminating bacterial pathogens efficiently.
