Dr. Zhang Xiuhong
Cephalosporins are a class of antibiotics widely used in clinical practice and belong to the beta-lactam family. Their primary mechanism is inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, thereby achieving bactericidal effects. Cephalosporin antibiotics exhibit strong antimicrobial activity against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and are particularly effective in treating common bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and skin and soft tissue infections.
In addition, cephalosporins are commonly used to treat various conditions including otolaryngological (ear, nose, and throat) infections, pulmonary infections, and gastrointestinal infections. They can rapidly control infections, alleviate patient symptoms, and improve cure rates.
Cephalosporin antibiotics should be used appropriately under the guidance of a physician.
