Cefalotin is a broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic used for the treatment of serious bacterial infections in various locations, such as the urinary tract, skin, bone, and lower respiratory tract.
The bactericidal activity of cefalotin results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis via affinity for penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). The PBPs are transpeptidases which are vital in peptidoglycan biosynthesis. Therefore, their inhibition prevents this vital cell wall compenent from being properly synthesized.
Used to prevent infection during surgery and to treat many kinds of infections of the blood, bone or joints, respiratory tract, skin, and urinary tract.
