General Description

Cephlosporin C sodium is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum antibiotic derived from the fungus Acremonium, and it belongs to the cephalosporin class of antibiotics. It works by interfering with the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, ultimately leading to cell death. Cephlosporin C sodium is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, including respiratory, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissue infections. It is administered via injection and is often used when other antibiotics are not effective or are contraindicated. Cephlosporin C sodium is generally considered safe and well-tolerated, but like all antibiotics, it may cause side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, and allergic reactions in some individuals.
