SUPRAX
®
(Cefixime as trihydrate)
ACTION
Suprax developed by Astellas research laboratories is a broad spectrum
semisynthetic cephalosporin antibiotic for
oral administration. The bactericidal action of Suprax results from
inhibition of cell-wall synthesis. Suprax is highly
beta-lactamase stable and as a result, many organisms resistant to
penicillins and some cephalosporins, due to
the presence of beta-lactamases, are susceptible to Suprax.
