Cefrixadine is a cephalosporin antibiotic, a class of β-lactam antibiotics similar to penicillins, which binds to and inhibits penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). PBPs are responsible for catalyzing the transpeptidase reaction which cross-links the peptide side chains on the sugar residues of a peptidoglycan unit, adding the unit to the peptidoglycan layer. This disrupts the balance between the hydrolysis of peptidoglycan, in order to insert new peptidoglycan units, by murein hydrolase and the attachment of the new units which leads to overall destruction of the peptidoglycan layer. With the loss of its peptidoglycan layer the cell also loses its resistance to the high osmotic pressure inside its membrane and lyses.
Oral bioavailability of 90%.
Primarily eliminated in the urine (80-96%).
Volume of distrubution of 15 L.
The total body clearance is 340 mL/min and the renal clearance is 250 mL/min.
DescriptionCefroxadine was synthesized by Ciba-Geigy in 1972. A methoxyl group replaced the methyl group of cephradine at the 3 position of the cephem nucleus. Cefroxadine shows stronger activities than cephalexin, especially bactericidal and bacteriolytic activities, and it has better oral absorption that is less affected by a recent meal. Cefroxadine shows less renal toxicity than cephalexin in toxicological studies using animals.
