http://linked.open...gbank/description
  • Cefepime is a fourth-generation cephalosporin antibiotic developed in 1994. Cefepime has an extended spectrum of activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with greater activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms than third-generation agents. Cefepime is usually reserved to treat severe nosocomial pneumonia, infections caused by multi-resistant microorganisms (e.g. Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and empirical treatment of febrile neutropenia.

  • For the treatment of pneumonia (moderate to severe) caused by <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>, including cases associated with concurrent bacteremia, <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>, <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, or <i>Enterobacter</i> species. Also for empiric treatment of febrile neutropenic patients and uncomplicated and complicated urinary tract infections (including pyelonephritis) caused by <i>Escherichia coli</i> or <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, when the infection is severe, or caused by <i>Escherichia coli</i>, <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, or <i>Proteus mirabilis</i>, when the infection is mild to moderate, including cases associated with concurrent bacteremia with these microorganisms. Also for the treatment of uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections caused by <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (methicillin-susceptible strains only) or <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> and complicated intra-abdominal infections (used in combination with metronidazole) caused by <i>Escherichia coli</i>, viridans group streptococci, <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>, <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, <i>Enterobacter</i> species, or <i>Bacteroides fragilis</i>.

http://linked.open...mechanismOfAction
  • Cephalosporins are bactericidal and have the same mode of action as other beta-lactam antibiotics (such as penicillins). Cephalosporins disrupt the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. The peptidoglycan layer is important for cell wall structural integrity, especially in Gram-positive organisms. The final transpeptidation step in the synthesis of the peptidoglycan is facilitated by transpeptidases known as penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). (en)

http://linked.open...outeOfElimination
  • Elimination of cefepime is principally via renal excretion with an average (±SD) half-life of 2 (±0.3) hours and total body clearance of 120 (±8) mL/min in healthy volunteers. Cefepime is excreted in human milk. (en)
