Pharmacodynamics

Cefotiam is a third generation beta-lactam cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall biosynthesis. It is a broad spectrum antibiotic that is effective against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria.

Mechanism of action

The bactericidal activity of cefotiam results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis via affinity for penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs).

TargetActionsOrganism

Interactions

Drug Interactions
This information should not be interpreted without the help of a healthcare provider. If you believe you are experiencing an interaction, contact a healthcare provider immediately. The absence of an interaction does not necessarily mean no interactions exist.
DrugInteraction
AbacavirCefotiam may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level.
AbciximabThe therapeutic efficacy of Abciximab can be decreased when used in combination with Cefotiam.
AcamprosateThe excretion of Acamprosate can be decreased when combined with Cefotiam.
AceclofenacThe risk or severity of nephrotoxicity can be increased when Cefotiam is combined with Aceclofenac.
AcemetacinThe risk or severity of nephrotoxicity can be increased when Cefotiam is combined with Acemetacin.
