Käyttöaiheet:

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of dicloxacillin sodium capsules USP and other antibacterial drugs, dicloxacillin sodium capsules USP should be used only to treat or prevent 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. Dicloxacillin is indicated in the treatment of infections caused by penicillinase-producing staphylococci which have demonstrated susceptibility to the drug. Cultures and susceptibility tests should be performed initially to determine the causative organisms and their sensitivity to the drug. (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY – Susceptibility Plate Testing ). Dicloxacillin may be used to initiate therapy in suspected cases of resistant staphylococcal i

DESCRIPTION
Dicloxacillin sodium is a semisynthetic antibiotic substance which
resists destruction by the enzyme
penicillinase(beta - lactamase). It is monosodium
(2_S_,5_R_,6_R_)-6-[3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)- 5-methyl-4-
isoxazolecarboxamido]-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo
[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylate
monohydrate.
Dicloxacillin is administered orally via capsule form or powder for
reconstitution. Structurally,
dicloxacillin sodium may be represented as follows:

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MICROBIOLOGY
Dicloxacillin exerts a bactericidal action against
penicillin-susceptible microorganisms during the state
of active multiplication. All penicillins inhibit the biosynthesis of
the bacterial cell wall.
The drugs in this class are highly resistant to inactivation by
staphylococcal penicillinase and are active

The drugs in this class are highly resistant to inactivation by
staphylococcal penicillinase and are active
against penicillinase-producing and nonpenicillinase-producing strains
of _Staphylococcus aureus. _The
penicillinase- resistant penicillins are active _in vitro _against a
variety of other bacteria.
