KEFLIN vs PANIXINE DISPERDOSE
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting transpeptidation and autolysin activation, leading to cell lysis.
Panixine is a cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), leading to cell lysis and death.
1-2 g IV/IM every 4-6 hours; maximum 12 g/day.
Cefpodoxime proxetil (Panixine Disperdose) is administered orally (PO) as a dispersible tablet. Typical adult dose: 200 mg PO every 12 hours for 10-14 days for community-acquired pneumonia; 100 mg PO every 12 hours for 5-7 days for acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis; 200 mg PO single dose for uncomplicated gonorrhea.

Terminal elimination half-life: 0.5-1 hour (normal renal function); prolonged to 2-3 hours in anuria. Clinically, dosing every 6 hours is recommended.
6-8 hours in healthy adults; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 20-30 hours in severe impairment).
Renal: 70-80% unchanged via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; biliary: minimal (<5%); fecal: <1%.
Renal excretion of unchanged drug accounts for 70-80% of elimination; biliary/fecal excretion accounts for 10-15%.
