Pelvic inflammatory disease
When the female pelvic reproductive organs and the surrounding connective tissues and pelvic peritoneum are inflamed, it is called pelvic inflammatory disease, including acute pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic peritonitis, adnexitis (acute adnexitis, chronic adnexitis, salpingitis, oophoritis), metritis (acute endometritis, chronic endometritis, acute cervicitis, chronic cervicitis), pelvic connective tissue inflammation, etc. It can occur in one or several places at the same time and is one of the common diseases in women.

CEFTRIAXONE SODIUM- ceftriaxone sodium_injection, powder, for solution
Indication: INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Before instituting treatment with ceftriaxone, appropriate specimens should be obtained for isolation of the causative organism and for determination of its susceptibility to the drug. Therapy may be instituted prior to obtaining results of susceptibility testing. To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of ceftriaxone for injection, USP and other antibacterial drugs, ceftriaxone for injection, USP should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. Ceftriaxone for injection, USP is indicated for the treatment of the following infections when caused by susceptible organisms: Caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Proteus mirabilis Serratia marcescens Caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae Moraxella catarrhalis NOTE: In one study lower clinical cure rates were observed with a single dose of ceftriaxone compared to 10 days of oral therapy. In a second study comparable cure rates were observed between single dose ceftriaxone and the comparator. The potentially lower clinical cure rate of ceftriaxone should be balanced against the potential advantages of parenteral therapy (see CLINICAL STUDIES Caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pyogenes streptococci Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Morganella morganii*, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, Bacteroides fragilis Peptostreptococcus Caused by Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Morganella morganii Klebsiella pneumoniae Caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae Neisseria gonorrhoeae Caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae Chlamydia trachomatis Chlamydia trachomatis Caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae Klebsiella pneumoniae Caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae Enterobacter Caused by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacteroides fragilis, Clostridium Clostridium difficile Peptostreptococcus Caused by Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis Streptococcus pneumoniae Staphylococcus epidermidis Escherichia coli* * Efficacy for this organism in this organ system was studied in fewer than ten infections. The preoperative administration of a single 1 g dose of ceftriaxone may reduce the incidence of postoperative infections in patients undergoing surgical procedures classified as contaminated or potentially contaminated (e. , vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy or cholecystectomy for chronic calculous cholecystitis in high-risk patients, such as those over 70 years of age, with acute cholecystitis not requiring therapeutic antimicrobials, obstructive jaundice or common duct bile stones) and in surgical patients for whom infection at the operative site would present serious risk (e. , during coronary artery bypass surgery). Although ceftriaxone has been shown to have been as effective as cefazolin in the prevention of infection following coronary artery bypass surgery, no placebo-controlled trials have been conducted to evaluate any cephalosporin antibiotic in the prevention of infection following coronary artery bypass surgery. When administered prior to surgical procedures for which it is indicated, a single 1 g dose of ceftriaxone provides protection from most infections due to susceptible organisms throughout the course of the procedure.
