DESCRIPTION
Hospira™ Cefoxitin Sodium Powder for Injection is a white to off
white sterile powder of cefoxitin
sodium for intravenous and intramuscular administration following
reconstitution. Each vial contains
cefoxitin sodium equivalent to 1 g of Cefoxitin.
Each gram of cefoxitin sodium contains approximately 51.2 mg (2.2 mEq)
of sodium. The pH of
10% w/v cefoxitin sodium in Water for Injections is 4.2 to 7.0.
PHARMACOLOGY
Cefoxitin is a bactericidal antibiotic which acts by inhibiting
bacterial cell wall synthesis. Due to the
presence of a 7-

methoxy group in the

-lactam ring, it exhibits a high degree of stability in the
presence of beta-lactamases.
MICROBIOLOGY
Cefoxitin is active against the following microorganisms _in vitro_:
Aerobic bacteria
1.
Gram-positive cocci including _Staphylococci_ (including
coagulase-positive, coagulase-
negative and penicillinase producing strains), Group A beta-haemolytic
streptococci
(_Streptococcus pyogenes_), Group B beta-haemolytic streptococci
(_Streptococcus agalactiae_)
and Streptococcus pneumoniae (_Diplococcus pneumoniae_). Other
streptococci (most strains
of enterococci, e.g. _Streptococcus faecalis_) are resistant.
2.
Gram-negative cocci including _Neisseria gonorrhoeae_ (including
penicillinase-producing
strains) and _Neisseria meningitidis_.
3.
Gram-negative rods (facultative anaerobes) including _Escherichia
coli, Klebsiella _
_pneumoniae, Klebsiella_ spp, _Proteus mirabilis, Proteus
_(indole-positive), _Proteus vulgaris, _
_Providencia rettgeri, Morganella morganii, Serratia marcescens ,
Providencia_ spp,
_Salmonella_ an
