  • Cefmetazole Pop Up
    Cefmetazole Antibiotic Class: Second-Generation Cephalosporin (2nd generation cephamycin) Antimicrobial Spectrum: Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin susceptible), Coagulase negative Staphylococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae (penicillin susceptible), Streptococcus spp (less activity for Gram positives compared to 1st and 2nd generation cephalosporins), Haemophilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis, Neisseria meningitides, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Enterobacteriaceae, E. coli Bacteroides spp. Mechanism of Action: Cephalosporins exert bactericidal activity by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis and inhibiting cross-linking of the peptidoglycan. The cephalosporins are also thought to play a role in the activation of bacterical cell autolysins which may contribute to bacterial cell lysis. Pharmacodynamics: Cephalosporins exhibit time-dependent killing (T > MIC) Pharmacokinetics: Dose of 2g: Cmax: 140 mcg/L; Protein binding: 85%; Half-life: 1-1.5 hours; Table 10 Adverse Effects: Hypersensitivity: Maculopapular rash, Urticaria, Pruritis, Anaphylaxis/angioedema, eosinophilia Hematologic: Hypoprothrombinemia, Neutropenia, Leukopenia, Thrombocytopenia GI: Diarrhea, C. difficile disease Renal: Interstitial nephritis Table 14 Dosage: IV: Powder for reconstitution: 1g, 2g Dosing in adults: 2g IV q 6-12h Dosing in pediatrics: Not Recommended Disease state based dosing: Renal failure: CrCl > 90: Standard dosing CrCl 50-90mL/min: 1-2g q12h CrCl 30-49mL/min: 1-2g q16h CrCl 10-29mL/min: 1-2g q24h CrCl < 10mL/min: 1-2g q48h Hepatic failure: No dosing

Though we do not encounter this side effect frequently in our day to day practice, yet with renal impairment this is not uncommon. Even with a reduced dose many of these can precipitate encephalopathy in this special group of patients.

  • Septic Shock Due to Yersinia Pseudotuberculosis Infection in An
    Hashimoto et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2021) 21:36 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-020-05733-w CASE REPORT Open Access Septic shock due to Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection in an adult immunocompetent patient: a case report and literature review Takehiro Hashimoto1, Ryuichi Takenaka1,2, Haruka Fukuda3, Kazuhiko Hashinaga1, Shin-ichi Nureki1*, Hideki Hayashidani4, Teruo Sakamoto3 and Osamu Shigemitsu2 Abstract Background: Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection can occur in an immunocompromised host. Although rare, bacteremia due to Y. pseudotuberculosis may also occur in immunocompetent hosts. The prognosis and therapeutic strategy, especially for immunocompetent patients with Y. pseudotuberculosis bacteremia, however, remains unknown. Case presentation: A 38-year-old Japanese man with a mood disorder presented to our hospital with fever and diarrhea. Chest computed tomography revealed consolidation in the right upper lobe with air bronchograms. He was diagnosed with pneumonia, and treatment with intravenous ceftriaxone and azithromycin was initiated. The ceftriaxone was replaced with doripenem and the azithromycin was discontinued following the detection of Gram- negative rod bacteria in 2 sets of blood culture tests. The isolated Gram-negative rod bacteria were confirmed to be Y. pseudotuberculosis. Thereafter, he developed septic shock. Doripenem was switched to cefmetazole, which was continued for 14 days. He recovered without relapse. Conclusions: We herein report a case of septic shock due to Y. pseudotuberculosis infection in an adult immunocompetent patient. The appropriate microorganism tests and antibiotic therapy are necessary to treat patients with Y. pseudotuberculosis bacteremia. Keywords: Azithromycin, Bacteremia, Cefmetazole, Ceftriaxone, Doripenem, Septic shock, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Background animal, such as rodents, rabbits, deer, farm animals, and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis is a Gram-negative rod birds [1, 2].

The limited treatment options have resulted in the increased use of AbuBakar, S. In Vitro Efficacy of carbapenem. However, flomoxef could be a potential carbapenem-sparing strategy for UTIs caused Flomoxef against Extended-Spectrum by ESBL-producers.
