MECHANISM OF ACTION
 

Cefpodoxime 200 mg: Cefpodoxime Proxetil Third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics include Proxetil. It causes cell lysis and death by preventing the production of the bacterial cell wall. It specifically binds to the bacterial cell wall's penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), preventing the last transpeptidation step required for peptidoglycan cross-linking. The bacterial cell ruptures as a result of this disruption, which weakens the cell wall. A wide variety of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria can be effectively combatted by cefpodoxime.
