THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Antibiotic
ACTIONS
SUPRAX (cefixime) exerts its bactericidal effect by attaching to
penicillin-binding proteins and
inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis, thus causing damage to the
bacterial cell wall.
Following oral dosing, SUPRAX attains peak serum levels in
approximately 4 hours. The
half-life is about 3 to 4 hours and is not dose dependent. Cefixime is
excreted by renal and
biliary mechanisms. About 50% of the absorbed dose is excreted
unchanged in the urine within
24 hours. There is no evidence of metabolism of cefixime _in vivo_.
