Cefoperazone is a third generation cephalosporin antibiotic. Marketed by pfizer under the name Cefobid®.
Cefina-SB is a combination of sulbactam and cefoperazone. Cefoperazone exerts its bactericidal effect by inhibiting the bacterial cell wall synthesis, and sulbactam acts as a beta-lactamase inhibitor, to increase the antibacterial activity of cefoperazone against beta-lactamase producing organisms. Cefina-SB is available as injection for the treatment of bacterial infections. In some countries, the combination is sold as Sulperazone. Cefoperazone is available in the United States as Cefobid.
