Cephalexin sodium

Description:

Cephalexin sodium is a semisynthetic antibiotic belonging to the cephalosporin class, primarily used to treat bacterial infections. It is effective against a variety of gram-positive and some gram-negative bacteria, making it useful for treating respiratory tract infections, skin infections, and urinary tract infections. The substance is characterized by its white to off-white crystalline powder form, which is soluble in water, allowing for easy formulation in oral and injectable forms. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell lysis and death. Cephalexin sodium is typically administered orally, and its pharmacokinetics include rapid absorption and distribution in the body, with renal excretion being the primary route of elimination. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, allergic reactions, and, in rare cases, more severe effects like anaphylaxis. As with all antibiotics, it is essential to use cephalexin sodium judiciously to minimize the risk of developing antibiotic resistance.
