Aztreonam for injection

Function and Efficacy

1. Aztreonam has high antibacterial activity against most aerobic Gram-negative bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Oxytobacter, aerogenes, Cloacae, Proteus, Serratia, Citrobacter, Shigella and other Enterobacteriaceae, as well as influenza bacilli, gonococci, meningococci, etc. It also has good antibacterial effect against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but has poor antibacterial effect against some Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter other than Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and has no antibacterial activity against aerobic Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus and Streptococcus, as well as anaerobic bacteria. 2. Aztreonam inhibits the synthesis of bacterial cell walls by highly binding to penicillin-binding protein (PBP3) on the cell membrane of sensitive aerobic Gram-negative bacteria. Unlike most b-lactam antibiotics, it does not induce bacteria to produce b-lactamases and is highly stable to most b-lactamases produced by bacteria.

The concentration of aztreonam should not exceed 2%, and the drip time is 20 to 60 minutes. 2. Intravenous push: Dissolve each bottle with 6 to 10ml of water for injection, and slowly inject into the vein within 3 to 5 minutes. 3.

Adverse Reactions

Adverse reactions are rare, with a systemic adverse reaction rate of about 1-1.3% or slightly lower, including gastrointestinal reactions, most commonly nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and skin allergic reactions. Decreased white blood cell count, thrombocytopenia, Clostridium difficile diarrhea, gastrointestinal bleeding, exfoliative dermatitis, hypotension, transient electrocardiogram changes, hepatobiliary system damage, central nervous system reactions, and muscle pain are rare.

Precautions

1. Patients with a history of allergy to aztreonam are prohibited from using this drug; 2. Infants and young children should use it with caution; 3. Breastfeeding women should stop breastfeeding when using this drug.
