The bactericidal action of cefuroxime is associated with inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis.

Indications

Bacterial infections caused by cefuroxime-sensitive microorganisms: - diseases of the respiratory tract (bronchitis, pneumonia, lung abscess, pleural empyema)

- ENT organs (sinusitis, tonsillitis, pharyngitis, otitis media, urinary tract infections cystitis, asymptomatic bacteriuria)

In case of bacterial meningitis - intravenously, for adults - 3 g every 8 hours for children of younger and older age - 150-250 mg / kg / day in 3-4 injections, for newborns - 100 mg / kg / day in 2-3 injections.

For the prevention of postoperative complications: - for operations on the heart, lungs, esophagus and blood vessels - intravenously, 1.5 g 0.5 to 1 hour before surgery and 0. 75 g intravenously or intramuscularly every 8 hours for prolonged operations for the next 24 to 48 hours (for open heart surgery, the total dose is up to 6 g)

- for operations on the abdominal cavity, pelvic organs and orthopedic operations - intravenously, 1.5 g for induction of anesthesia, then additionally - intramuscularly, 0.75 g, after 8 and 16 hours after

operation - with a complete joint replacement - 1.5 g of powder is mixed in dry form with each packet of methyl methacrylate cement polymer before adding liquid monomer.

In pneumonia - intramuscularly or intravenously, 1.5 g 2-3 times a day for 48-72 hours, then they switch to oral administration (use dosage forms for oral administration) 0.5 g 2 times a day for 7- 10 days.

In chronic renal failure, correction of the dosage regimen in adults is necessary: ​​with creatinine clearance (CC) 10-20 ml / min is prescribed intravenously or intramuscularly at 0.75 g 2 times a day, with CC less than 10 ml / min - at 0.75 g 1 time per day.

In chronic renal failure in children, the dosage regimen should be changed in accordance with the recommendations for adults.

Patients undergoing continuous hemodialysis using an arteriovenous shunt or high-speed hemofiltration in intensive care units are prescribed 0.75 g 2 times a day for patients who are on low-speed hemofiltration, they are prescribed recommended for impaired renal function.

Side effects

Allergic reactions: chills, rash, itching, urticaria, erythema multiforme exudative (including Stevens-Johnson syndrome), toxic epidermal necrolysis (Lyell's syndrome), bronchospasm, drug-induced fever, serum fever, cutaneous vasculitis.

From the nervous system: cramps.

From the genitourinary system: itching in the perineum, vaginitis.

Sensory organs: hearing loss.

Laboratory indicators: increased activity of hepatic enzymes (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase), hyperbilirubinemia, false positive Coombs test.

Drug Interaction

Concurrent administration of loop diuretics slows tubular secretion, decreases renal clearance, increases plasma concentration, and increases the half-life of cefuroxime.

When used with aminoglycosides and diuretics, the risk of nephrotoxic effects is increased.
