Cephapirin
An early first-generation parenteral cephalosporin antibiotic that was used for the treatment of infections caused by susceptible gram-positive organisms, including surgical prophylaxis. It has a short duration of action compared to some newer cephalosporins. It is largely obsolete in human medicine but continues to have use in veterinary practice.

作用机制
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.
