Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://ncit.nci.nih.gov/ncitbrowser/ConceptReport.jsp?dictionary=NCI_Thesaurus&ns=NCI_Thesaurus&code=C81027 and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/426514

Cefatrizine is a broad-spectrum, semisynthetic, first-generation cephalosporin with antibacterial activity. Cefatrizine binds to and inactivates penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. PBPs are enzymes involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in reshaping the cell wall during growth and division. Inactivation of PBPs interferes with the cross-linkage of peptidoglycan chains necessary for bacterial cell wall strength and rigidity. This results in the weakening of the bacterial cell wall and causes cell lysis. Cefatrizine is used to treat a large variety of bacterial infections, such as respiratory tract, ear, skin and urinary tract infections. Cefatrizine is less effective against gram positive bacteria than first generation drugs. Antibiotics require constant drug level in body for therapeutic effect.
