The Application & Function of Cefalexin Cephalexin

            Cephalexin (cefalexin) is a cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections of the upper respiratory tract, the middle ear, the bones, the skin, and the reproductive and urinary systems. Cephalexin (cefalexin) works by interfering with the bacteria's cell wall formation. This weakens the cell wall, causing it to rupture, and kills the bacteria. As cephalexin (cefalexin)is only effective against certain types of bacterial infection your doctor may perform tests to identify the organisms causing the infection before beginning treatment.

               Cephalexin is the first generation of semi-synthetic oral cephalosporin. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit the cell wall synthesis of bacterial division cells by combining with one or more penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of bacteria (Cephalexin mainly combines with PBP-3), thus playing an antibacterial role. The antibacterial spectrum of cefalexin is similar to that of cefthiophene, but its antibacterial activity is worse than that of the latter. In addition to Enterococcus and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus, Gram-positive cocci are sensitive to cephalexin. Cephalexin has a good antibacterial effect on Neisseria, but a poor sensitivity to influenza bacilli. It has a certain antibacterial effect on some Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Salmonella. Other Enterobacteriaceae, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacteroides fragilis are resistant to Cephalexin.

Application:

Cephalexin is a semi-synthetic, cephalosporin antibiotic. it is a first generation cephalosporin. The compound is most effective against gram positive cocci and has moderate activity against some gram negative bacilli.

1.Cefalexin or cephalexin is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It is an orally administered agent with a similar antimicrobial spectrum to the intravenous agents cefalotin and cefazolin. Cefalexin is used to treat urinary tract infections, respir.
