Pharmacology:

Cefepime is a fourth-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell lysis and bacterial death. It is effective against a wide range of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, making it a broad-spectrum antibiotic.

Dosage:

Adults and children over 12 years: The usual dose is 1-2 grams every 12 hours, depending on the severity of the infection.
The duration of treatment depends on the type and severity of the infection, usually ranging from 7 to 14 days.
Renal adjustment: Dose adjustments are necessary in patients with renal impairment.

Administration:

Administered intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM).
For IV use, it should be diluted and infused over a period of 30 minutes to 1 hour.
For IM use, it should be injected deep into a large muscle.

Interaction:

Cefepime may interact with other antibiotics such as aminoglycosides, which can increase the risk of kidney damage.
It may also interact with anticoagulants like warfarin, increasing the risk of bleeding.
It can decrease the effectiveness of oral contraceptives.

Contraindications:

Hypersensitivity to cephalosporins or any component of the product
History of severe allergic reactions to penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics
