藥理
Antibiotic, Cephalosporin
Flomoxef is a broad-spectrum oxacephem (oxacephalosporin) antibiotic with a similar vitro spectrum of activity to those of cefamandole and moxalactam. It is ineffective against Pseudomonas spp. In addition, flomoxef may be an attractive alternative to other beta-lactam antibiotics because of its relative lack of influence on coagulation parameters and platelet function compared to some similar agents.
藥動學
Flomoxef distributes well into soft tissues, middle ear tissues, sputum, and cerebrospinal fluid; it is primarily eliminated via the kidney (85%- 87%)
