How effective is Ceftazidime 0.5 g from Japan (intravenous antibiotics, Fortaz, Tazicef)?
Ceftazidime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It works by disrupting the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. Ceftazidime injections are effective for the treatment of various diseases cause by Gram-positive (including group B streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes), Gram-negative (including Enterobacter, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella spp., Proteus spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Neisseria meningitidis) and anaerobic bacteria (Bacteroides spp.). Unlike many other third-generation cephalosporins, it is effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. But it’s less effective against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
Who should use Ceftazidime 0.5 g from Japan?
Ceftazidime is generally well-tolerated, it has few contraindications, like pregnancy or breastfeeding. It can be used for patients with kidney diseases. However, the dosage should be reduced and the condition of the patient should be constantly monitored by the consulting doctor. Nevertheless, ceftazidime injections are safe for the patients with liver diseases (M. T. Pasko, T. R. Beam et al. Safety and pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime in patients with chronic hepatic dysfunction. Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1985, March, 15(3): 365-74).
