Mechanism of Action:Fiximax-50 Dry Syrup operates by interfering with the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, which is crucial for the bacteria’s survival. Bacterial cell walls are composed of a rigid structure called peptidoglycan, which provides the necessary strength to withstand the internal pressure of the cell. The synthesis of peptidoglycan involves several enzymes, known as penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). These proteins play a vital role in the final stages of assembling and cross-linking peptidoglycan chains. Fiximax-50 Dry Syrup targets these PBPs and binds to them, thereby inhibiting their activity.
