2. Ceftolozane/tazobactam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceftolozane/tazobactam

   [6] [5] [7] Ceftolozane is a cephalosporin antibiotic, developed for the treatment of infections with gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to conventional antibiotics. [8] It was studied for urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia.

3. Cefuroxime axetil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cefuroxime_axetil

   Second generation cephalosporins are more effective in treating Gram-negative bacilli compared to first generation cephalosporins, which have a greater coverage for Gram-positive cocci. Also, it has been reported that cefuroxime is resistant to hydrolysis by β-lactamases produced by Gram-negative bacteria. [4] Some medical uses are: [5] [6]

4. Cefiderocol - Wikipedia

   Cefiderocol, sold under the brand name Fetcroja (by Shionogi) among others, is an antibiotic used to treat complicated urinary tract infections when no other options are available. [5] It is indicated for the treatment of multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [6] [7] [8] It is given by injection into a ...

   A colored electron microscopy image of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (), a bacterium commonly targeted by broad-spectrum antibioticsA broad-spectrum antibiotic is an antibiotic that acts on the two major bacterial groups, Gram-positive and Gram-negative, [1] or any antibiotic that acts against a wide range of disease-causing bacteria.

7. Antimicrobial spectrum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_spectrum

   Narrow-spectrum antibiotics have low propensity to induce bacterial resistance and are less likely to disrupt the microbiome (normal microflora). [3] On the other hand, indiscriminate use of broad-spectrum antibiotics may not only induce the development of bacterial resistance and promote the emergency of multidrug-resistant organisms, but also cause off-target effects due to dysbiosis.
