infections caused by cefuroxime sensitive pathogens. All cephalosporins (β-lactam antibiotics) inhibit cell wall production and are selective inhibitors of peptidoglycan synthesis. The initial step in drug action consists of binding of the drug to cell receptors‚ called Penicillin-Binding Proteins. After a β-lactam antibiotic has bound to these receptors‚ the transpeptidation reaction is inhibited and peptidoglycan synthesis is blocked. Bacterial lysis is the end result. It inhibits the cell wall synthesis
