The Zocef 500 Tablet contains the following component:

Cefuroxime (500 mg): It is a cephalosporin antibiotic that targets the bacterial cell wall, a crucial component for bacterial structure and stability. By disrupting this cross-linking process, Zocef 500 Tablet weakens the strength of the bacterial cell wall. As a result, the bacterial cell becomes structurally unstable. The weakened cell wall eventually breaks down, leading to the rupture and death of the bacterial cell.
