| Cefpirome sulfate Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Cefpirome sulfate is a new injectable cephalosporin indicated for the treatment of
severe urinary and respiratory tract infections, including septicemia and nosocomial
infections. Cefpirome sulfate is reported to be the first true fourth-generation
cephalosporin due to its similar activities to third-generation antibiotics against
Gram-positive bacteria and to first-generation antibiotics against Gram-negative
bacteria. Its efficacy against P.aeruginosa is comparable to ceftazidime. The broad
spectrum of activity includes Klebsiella, methicillin-sensitive staphylococci,
penicillin-resistant pneumococci, E.coli which generates extended-spectrum
beta-lactamases and multi-resistant organisms such as Citrobacter, Enterobacter and
Serratia. | Chemical Properties | White Crystalline Powder | Originator | Hoechst AG (Germany) | Uses | A fourth generation cephalosporin antibiotic | Definition | ChEBI: Cefpirome sulfate is an azaheterocycle sulfate salt. It is functionally related to a cefpirome. | Brand name | Cefrom (Hoechst-Roussel). |
