Cephaloglycin
An early first-generation oral cephalosporin antibiotic with activity primarily against gram-positive bacteria, now obsolete and no longer in clinical use. It was one of the first cephalosporins developed for oral administration. It has been superseded by safer and more effective cephalosporin antibiotics.

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.
