Cefotaxime Sodium

Composition
Cefotaxime Sodium

Description
Cefotaxime has a relatively wide spectrum of activity against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. While less active against Staphylococcus spp. than the first generation agents, it still has significant activity against those and other gram positive cocci. Cefotaxime, like the other 3rd generation agents, has extended coverage of gram negative aerobes particularly in the family Enterobacteriaceae, including Klebsiella sp., E. coli, Salmonella, Serratia marcesans, Proteus sp., and Enterobacter sp.. Cefotaxime’s in vitro activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa is variable and results are usually disappointing when the drug is used clinically against this organism. Many anaerobes are also susceptible to cefotaxime, including strains of Bacteroides fragilis, Clostridium sp., Fusobacterium sp., Peptococcus sp., and Peptostreptococcus sp..
