خصائص المنتج

ZEPILEN
CEFAZOLIN SODIUM PH EUR EQUIVALENT TO CEFAZOLIN 500MG AND 1G
PRESENTATION
ZEPILEN 500mg and 1g vials contain a white to off-white powder which
reconstitutes with
Sterile Water for Injection to give a colourless solution.
ZEPILEN 500mg vial contains cefazolin sodium equivalent to 500mg of
cefazolin.
ZEPILEN 1g vial contains cefazolin sodium equivalent to 1g of
cefazolin.
USES
_ACTIONS _
ZEPILEN is a semisynthetic cephalosporin for intramuscular or
intravenous administration.
_In vitro _tests demonstrate that the bactericidal action of
cephalosporins results from inhibition
of cell-wall synthesis.
ZEPILEN is active against the following organisms _in vitro _and in
clinical infections:
_Staphylococcus aureus _(including penicillinase-producing strains)
_Staphylococcus epidermidis_. (Methicillin-resistant staphylococci are
uniformly resistant to
ZEPILEN).
Group Α β-haemolytic streptococci and other strains of streptococci
(many strains of
enterococci are resistant).
_Streptococcus pneumoniae _
_Escherichia coli _
_Klebsiella _sp.
_Proteus mirabilis _
_Haemophilus influenzae _
_Enterobacter aerogenes _
Most strains of indole-positive _Proteus (Proteus vulgaris),
Enterobacter cloacae, Morganella _
_morganii, _and _Providencia rettgeri _are resistant.
_Serratia, Pseudomonas _and _Acinetobacter calcoaceticus _(formerly
_Mima _and _Herellea _sp.)
are almost uniformly resistant to cefazolin.
DISC SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTS:
Quantitative methods that require measurements of zone diameters give
the most precise
estimates of antibiotic susceptibility. One such procedure has been
recommended for use
with discs for testing susceptibility to cefazolin. With this
procedure, a report from the
laboratory of “susceptible” indicates that the infecting organism
is likely to respond to
therapy. A report of “resistant” indicates that the infecting
organism is not likely to respond to
therapy.
A
report
of
“moderately
susceptible”
suggests
that
the
organism
would
be
susceptible if high dosage is used or if the infection we
