    J.01.D.D.14   Ceftibuten

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic.

    Has bactericidal action due to inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis. Violates the synthesis of the biopolymer peptidoglikana - the main component of the cell wall of bacteria. It inhibits the peptidoglycan transpeptidase, inhibits the activity of the endogenous inhibitor, which leads to activation of murein hydrolase, which cleaves peptidoglycan. Effective against fissile bacteria, in the walls of which the synthesis of peptidoglycan occurs.

    It is active against most Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including Edwardsiella tarda, Citrobacter freundii, Streptococcus spp., Morganella morganii, Serratia spp., Hafnia alvei, Yersinia enterocolitica.

    Inactive for Acinetobacter spp., Enterococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Listeria spp., Flavobacterium spp., Pseudomonas spp.

    It is resistant to the action of β-lactamases: penicillinase, cephalosporinase.

    Pharmacokinetics:

    After oral administration, up to 90% is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration in the blood plasma is achieved in 2-3 hours. The connection with plasma proteins is 62-64%.

    Not exposed to metabolism. Does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier.

    Half-life is 2.5 hours. Elimination by the kidneys.

    Indications:

    It is used for the treatment of infections caused by microorganisms sensitive to the preparation: upper and lower respiratory tract and ENT organs - pharyngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, tonsillitis, scarlet fever, acute sinusitis, otitis media in children; complicated and uncomplicated urinary tract infections, gastritis and enteritis in children.

    Central and peripheral nervous system: headache, dizziness.

    Hemopoietic system: leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, eosinophilia, hypoprothrombinemia.

    Digestive system: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, cholestatic jaundice, pseudomembranous colitis, increased activity of hepatic transaminases, hepatitis.

    Dermatological reactions: hyperhidrosis, rash, itching, candidiasis.

    Urinary system: interstitial nephritis.

    Allergic reactions.

    Overdose:

    Increased side effects.

    Treatment is symptomatic.
    Interaction:

    When used simultaneously with aminoglycosides, butadione, polymyxins, the risk of nephrotoxicity increases.

    Increase the effect of aminoglycosides, metronidazole, polymyxins, rifampicin, weaken - levomitsetin, tetracyclines.

    Reduces the bioavailability of histamine H blockers2-receptors (including ranitidine) and antacid preparations (aluminum hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate).

    Kolestyramin reduces the absorption of ceftibutene.
