CEFCINAL 1000

Description

CEFCINAL 1000 is a sterile injectable formulation containing Ceftriaxone 1000 mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with broad-spectrum bactericidal activity. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis through binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), thereby blocking peptidoglycan cross-linking and leading to bacterial cell lysis and death. Its stability against many β-lactamases enhances its effectiveness against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms.

Administered via intravenous or intramuscular route under medical supervision, it ensures effective plasma concentrations for the management of moderate to severe infections. It is indicated for the treatment of respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, septicemia, meningitis, skin and soft tissue infections, intra-abdominal infections, and bone and joint infections. It is also used for surgical prophylaxis to reduce the risk of postoperative infections.

Indications:

• Lower respiratory tract infections (e.g., pneumonia)
• Urinary tract infections (including complicated UTIs)
• Septicemia (bloodstream infections)
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Intra-abdominal infections (e.g., peritonitis)
• Bone and joint infections
• Meningitis
• Gonorrhea and other sexually transmitted infections
