Cefepime Hydrochloride
The hydrochloride salt form of cefepime is the standard preparation for parenteral administration of this fourth-generation cephalosporin. It provides broad-spectrum antibacterial coverage suitable for severe and hospital-acquired infections. Dose reduction is necessary in patients with reduced kidney function to prevent accumulation and neurotoxic side effects.
