Cefepime Powder for Injection is a sterile lyophilised powder for
injection containing
the inactive ingredient L-arginine to control the pH of the
reconstituted solution at 4.0 to 6.0.
Following reconstitution with Water for Injection as directed in
labelling, it results in a pale
yellow to amber coloured, clear solution.
Each 20 mL vial contains either 1.914 g or 3.828 g of sterile cefepime
– L-arginine powder,
which is equivalent to 1 g or 2 g of cefepime and approximately 725 mg
of arginine per gram
of cefepime. It contains no antimicrobial preservative and is for use
in one patient only.
USES
_ACTIONS_
Cephalosporins act by interfering with bacterial cell-wall synthesis,
leading to lysis of the
infectious organism.
