Description

Cefazolin, also known as cefazoline or cephazolin, is a antibiotic used for the treatment of a number of bacterial infections and usually administered by either intramuscular injection or intravenous infusion. As a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, cefazolin is very active against gram-positive bacteria and some gram-negative bacteria. The broad spectrum of activity can be contributed to the improved stability to many bacterial beta-lactamases compared to penicillins. Due to possible cross-reactivity with penicillins, people who have experienced anaphylaxis to penicillins are not advised to receive cephalosporins. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash. Used in a variety of infections provided that susceptible organisms are involved, cefazolin is indicated for use in the following infections: respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, biliary tract, bone and joint, genital, sepsis, and endocarditis. Cefazolin is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[Wikipedia: Cefazolin] Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
