Cephalkem 100mg Oral Drops 10ml are given orally.

Cephalkem 100mg Oral Drops 10ml contain Cefalexin (100 mg), which acts on the body in the following ways:

• Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis Inhibition: Cefalexin works by binding to and inactivating certain proteins (penicillin-binding proteins or PBPs) found on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. These proteins are vital for cross-linking peptidoglycan chains that give strength and rigidity to the bacterial cell wall.
• Cell Lysis: By preventing this cross-linking process, Cefalexin weakens the cell wall of bacteria. This leads to cell lysis, or breaking down of the bacterial cell, thus effectively managing the bacterial infection.
