Core Medical Application
Third-generation oral broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic with potent activity against both Gram-positive (Streptococcus spp.) and Gram-negative (Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli, etc.) bacteria. It is stable against β-lactamase. Clinically indicated for respiratory tract infections (pneumonia, bronchitis, tonsillitis), urogenital infections (gonorrhea, cystitis, pyelonephritis), biliary tract infections, otitis media, sinusitis, scarlet fever, etc.
-
Research & Reagent Application
As antibiotic reference standard/standard substance for microbial susceptibility testing, antibiotic activity determination, β-lactamase stability studies, and pharmacokinetic experiments.
-
Other Applications
Used in veterinary medicine for preventing and treating bacterial infections in livestock and poultry; in aquaculture for controlling bacterial diseases in aquatic animals.
