Cefoxitin Sodium(Cat No.:I003218)is a broad-spectrum, semi-synthetic cephamycin antibiotic, effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is commonly used in the treatment of infections, including intra-abdominal infections, respiratory tract infections, and surgical prophylaxis. As a beta-lactam antibiotic, Cefoxitin Sodium works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell death. This compound is resistant to many beta-lactamases, providing enhanced activity against certain resistant organisms. Its sodium salt form ensures proper solubility for intravenous administration, making it a reliable choice for treating various bacterial infections in clinical settings.
