4

A widely used third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity and a long half-life allowing once-daily dosing, used for a range of serious infections including meningitis, community-acquired pneumonia, gonorrhea, and Lyme disease. It is available only for parenteral use and is eliminated via both renal and biliary routes, making it useful when renal function is compromised. It should not be mixed with calcium-containing IV solutions due to the risk of precipitate formation.

Wirkmechanismus

Disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis. The resulting cell wall defects cause osmotic instability and bacteriolysis.
