Moxalactam (also known as latamoxef, Lamoxactam, Festamoxin, LY-127935, 6059-S) is a new synthetic oxa-beta-lactam antibiotic administered intravenously or intramuscularly. It has a broad spectrum of activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, is particularly active against Enterobacteriaceae and is resistant to hydrolysis by beta-lactamases. Moxalactam has moderate activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but on […]

Vancomycin HCl is the hydrochloride of vancomycin that is a narrow-spectrum glycopeptide antibacterial drug used to treat a number of bacterial infections. It is recommended intravenously as a treatment for complicated skin infections, bloodstream infections, endocarditis, bone and joint infections, and meningitis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Blood levels may be measured to determine the […]

Cefditoren Pivoxil (also named ME-1207) is a broad-spectrum and 3rd-generation antibiotic against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Cefditoren has MIC50/MIC90 results for Moraxella catarrhalis and Haemophilus influenzae of 0.12/0.5 and < or = 0.008/0.015 mg/mL, respectively. Cefditoren (MIC(90), 0.5 mg/mL) is 4- to 128-fold more active than comparison beta-lactams against the pneumoococci and was the most […]

Sulbactam (CP 45899 and Betamaze) is a potent and irreversible β-lactamase inhibitor given in combination with β-lactam antibiotics to inhibit β-lactamase, an enzyme produced by bacteria that destroys antibiotic activity.

Biapenem (also called L-627, CLI 86815, LJC10627) is a potent carbapenem antibiotic with activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Biapenem has activity comparable to those of Imipenem and Meropenem against all groups of anaerobes with MICs for 90% of the strains tested of 0.06 to 2 mg/mL. Biapenem is more active than ampicillin-sulbactam, […]
