  • Title: Antibacterial activities of cefpodoxime, cefixime, and ceftriaxone.
    Author: Knapp CC, Sierra-Madero J, Washington JA.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 1988 Dec; 32(12):1896-8. PubMed ID: 3245701.
    Abstract:
    Cefpodoxime, cefixime, and ceftriaxone inhibited Branhamella catarrhalis at less than or equal to 1 microgram/ml, beta-hemolytic streptococci at less than or equal to 0.25 microgram/ml, Neisseria meningitidis at less than or equal to 0.06 microgram/ml, and Haemophilus influenzae (other than beta-lactamase-negative, ampicillin-resistant isolates) at less than or equal to 0.12 microgram/ml. The MICs for 50% of isolates of the family Enterobacteriaceae other than Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, and Enterobacter cloacae were less than or equal to 1 microgram/ml for all three cephalosporins. The MICs of each cephalosporin for 90% of staphylococci, enterococci, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were greater than 16 micrograms/ml. Inoculum effects were noted with cefpodoxime and cefixime with beta-lactamase-positive H. influenzae.
