Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Ceftazidime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic with potent activity against a broad range of Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Its antibacterial action is mediated by inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis via high affinity binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Ceftazidime exhibits minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) typically ranging from 0.25 to 8 µg/mL for susceptible strains of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa, with an MIC90 of ~4 µg/mL against many Enterobacteriaceae. It is ineffective against most Gram-positive bacteria and anaerobes. Resistance is primarily mediated by extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamase overexpression. Ceftazidime has been widely used for serious infections such as nosocomial pneumonia, bacteremia, and urinary tract infections, often in hospitalized settings.
