Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Cefaclor, a second-generation cephalosporin, inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), thereby disrupting peptidoglycan cross-linking.
Cefotaxime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), disrupting peptidoglycan cross-linking, leading to cell lysis.
250-500 mg orally every 8 hours; extended-release form (CECLOR CD) 375-750 mg orally every 12 hours.
1-2 g IV every 6-8 hours; maximum 12 g/day.
