Description
Cefixime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. It binds to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the bacterial cell membrane, disrupting cell wall construction. This leads to the weakening of the cell wall, causing cell lysis and ultimately the death of the bacteria. Cefixime is effective against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, making it useful in treating various infections.
