Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.toku-e.com/Cefminox-sodium-P646.aspx and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9517922

Cefminox is a broad-spectrum, bactericidal cephalosporin antibiotic. It is especially effective against Gram-negative and anaerobic bacteria. It is indicated in treatment of the following infections caused by sensitive bacteria: 1. Respiratory infections: Amygdalitis, circumtonsillar abscess, bronchitis, bronchiolitis, bronchiectasis (in fection), secondary infections of chronic respiratory diseases, pneumonia, and pulmonary suppuration; 2. Infection in urinary system: Nephropyelitis, cystitis; 3. Infections in abdominal cavity: Cholecystitis' angiocholitis'peritonitis; 4. Infections in pelvic cavity: Pelvic peritonitis, adnexitis, intrauterine infection, inflammation in pelvic dead space, and parametritis; 5. Septicaemia.

Sample Use Guides

Administration only for intravenous injection or intervenous drop injection. For intravenous injection: Cefminox sodium 1g (valence) can be dissolved in 200ml water for injection, and 5~10% glucose or 0.9% sodium chloride injection. For intervenous drop injection: Cefminox sodium 1g (valence) can be dissolved in 100~500ml 5~10% glucose or 0.9% sodium chloride injection. A drop innjection for 1~2 hours. Recommended dose for adults: 1g (valence) to be administrated twice a day; Adjusted according to the age and symptoms; In septicaemia, and refractory or severe infections, a total daily dosage of 6g (valence) is divided into 3~4 administrations. Recommended dose for children: 20mg (valence)/kg (body weight) to be administrated 3~ 4 times a day.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
The MIC50 and MIC90 of cefminox against E. coli were 1.0 mg/L and 4.0 mg/L, respectively.
