    White blood cells (WBCs) are the body’s defense army against infections. When harmful bacteria, viruses, or fungi enter the body, WBCs quickly identify and attack them. Neutrophils are the first responders, engulfing and destroying invaders. Lymphocytes, including T-cells and B-cells, coordinate immunity by producing antibodies and memory cells to fight future infections. Monocytes and macrophages clean up dead pathogens and damaged tissue. This rapid immune response helps prevent the spread of disease. In severe bacterial infections, antibiotics like ceftriaxone may be prescribed, making ceftriaxone injection distributors vital in ensuring timely access to effective treatments for patients worldwide.
