THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Antibiotic
ACTION
TEVA-CEPHALEXIN is bactericidal against many gram-positive and
gram-negative organisms.
_In vitro_
tests demonstrate that the cephalosporins are bactericidal through
their inhibition of cell-
wall synthesis
(15)
.
INDICATIONS
TEVA-CEPHALEXIN may be indicated for the treatment of bacterial
infections of the
respiratory tract
(1,12)(l3,l4)
, including otitis media
(1,2)
, genitourinary tract
(3)
, bone and joints
(4,5)
,
skin and soft tissue
(6,7)
, when the infection is caused by susceptible organisms. Culture and
susceptibility studies should be performed.
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the
effectiveness of TEVA-
CEPHALEXIN and other antibacterial drugs, TEVA-CEPHALEXIN should be
used only to treat
infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by
susceptible bacteria. When
culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be
considered in selecting or
modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local
epidemiology and
susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of
therapy.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
