Significant: Anaphylaxis, elevated INR and bleeding, bacterial or fungal superinfection. Blood and lymphatic system disorders: Agranulocytosis, eosinophilia, leucopenia, neutropaenia, thrombocytosis, thrombocytopaenia. Gastrointestinal disorders: Diarrhoea, nausea. Injury, poisoning and procedural complications: Injection site phlebitis. Investigations: Increased SGOT, SGPT prolonged prothrombin time, increased BUN, and serum creatinine. Potentially Fatal: Severe haemolytic anaemia, pseudomembranous colitis.
Monitor coagulation parameters (e.g. INR/prothrombin time, haematologic parameters (e.g. CBC with differential), LFT and renal function periodically. Monitor signs and symptoms of haemolytic anaemia.
Tương tác
Enhanced nephrotoxic effect with aminoglycosides. Increased serum concentration with probenecid. May enhance the anticoagulant effect of vitamin K antagonists (e.g. warfarin). May diminish the therapeutic effect of Na picosulfate, BCG, typhoid and cholera vaccines.

Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Cefotetan is a 2nd generation cephalosporin which inhibits bacterial cell wall biosynthesis by binding to 1 or more of the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) which in turn prevents the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis, thus arresting cell wall assembly resulting in bacterial cell death. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Time to peak plasma concentration: 1-3 hours (IM). Distribution: Widely distributed into body tissues and fluids (including bile, gallbladder, kidney, skin, tonsils, uterus, sputum, prostatic and peritoneal fluids). Crosses the placenta and enters breast milk (small amounts). Plasma protein binding: Approx 88%. Excretion: Via urine (approx 51-81% as unchanged drug). Elimination half-life: Approx 3-4.6 hours.
