  • Title: In vitro antibacterial activity of cefpiramide.
    Author: Pfaller MA, Niles AC, Murray PR.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 1984 Mar; 25(3):368-72. PubMed ID: 6426381.
    Abstract:
    A microbroth dilution method was used to measure the MICs of cefpiramide (SM 1652), cefotaxime, moxalactam, ceftazidime, cefoperazone, ceftriaxone, piperacillin, and mezlocillin against 921 isolates of gram-negative (701) and gram-positive (220) bacteria. The activity of cefpiramide was equivalent to those of piperacillin and mezlocillin against members of the family Enterobacteriaceae and gram-positive isolates, including enterococci. Cefpiramide had equivalent or slightly greater activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa than the other beta-lactam antibiotics tested.
