Description and Uses

Ceftizoxime was synthesized by Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Industries in 1979. It possesses the (iminothiazolyl)methoxyiminomethyl group at the 7 position of the cephem nucleus, but there is no side chain at the 3 position. The compound shows excellent activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, behavior similar to that of cefotaxime. Unlike cefotaxime, however, it is not metabolized in vivo.

A broad spectrum antibiotic targeting a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
