Description and Uses

Cefotaxime was synthesized by Hoechst and Roussel-Uclaf in 1977. It was the first derivative of cephalosporin to introduce the methoxyimino and aminothiazole groups at the 7 position of the cephem nucleus. Although it shows unexpectedly low oral absorption, its excellent activity against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms, including Serratia, Enterobacter, Citrobacter, and anaerobes, guided research and development of the newer synthetic cephems, the so-called thirdgeneration cephalosporins.

Cefotaxime sodium salt acts as a beta-lactamase resistant antibiotic. It is used as an effective antibacterial against gram-negative bacteria, with the notable exception of pseudomonas and penicillin-resistant strains of streptococcus pneumoniae. It is used to treat infections of the bones, joints, skin, respiratory tract and blood stream.
