Optical Activity | UNSPECIFIED |
Cefonicid is a semi-synthetic broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic resistant to beta-lactamases. Similarly to other cephalosporins, cefonicid exerts its antibacterial activity through the inhibition of the bacterial cell-wall synthesis. Its in vitro and in vivo activity against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms is documented.

Sample Use Guides
The usual adult dosage is 1 g CEFONICID administered once every 24 hours, intravenously or by deep intramuscular injection. Daily doses higher
than 1 g are rarely necessary. However, in exceptional cases, doses up to 2 g given once daily have been well tolerated. In case of administration of 2 g I.M. once daily, half the dose should be administered in different large muscle masses.
