Cefadroxil Trimethoprim Capsules
Function and Efficacy
Cephalexin is a first-generation cephalosporin with an antibacterial spectrum similar to that of cephalothin, but its antibacterial activity is poorer than that of the latter. Except for Enterococcus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococci, most strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae, hemolytic Streptococcus, and Staphylococcus aureus that produces or does not produce penicillinase are sensitive to this product. This product has a good antibacterial effect on Neisseria, but Haemophilus influenzae is less sensitive to this product. This product has a certain antibacterial effect on some Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella and Shigella. The remaining Enterobacteriaceae, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Bacteroides fragilis are resistant to this product. Fusobacterium and Veillonella are generally sensitive to this product. Anaerobic Gram-positive cocci are moderately sensitive to this product. Trimethoprim is an antibacterial agent, and its mechanism of action is to interfere with bacterial folate metabolism.
Ingredients
This product is a compound preparation, each tablet containing 0.125g of cephalexin and 0.025g of trimethoprim.
