Cefuroxime Pharmacology Podcast

On this episode, I discuss cefuroxime pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interaction, pharmacokinetics, and much more. Cefuroxime is a 2nd generation cephalosporin that binds Penicillin-binding proteins and prevents bacterial cell wall synthesis. Medications that create a higher pH in the stomach such as antacids can ultimately reduce the concentrations of cefuroxime. Cefuroxime is primarily eliminated by the kidney. Dose adjustments are recommended for patients with a CrCL less than 30 mls/min. Be sure to check out our free Top 200 study guide – a 31 page PDF that is yours for FREE!
