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 Διαβάστε το πλήρες έγγραφο
