What is Cefotaxime for?

Cefotaxime belongs to a class of medications called cephalosporin antibiotics. It kills bacteria by interrupting the integrity of bacterial cell walls. It is used to treat infections, including pneumonia (respiratory tract infection), gonorrhea (a sexually transmitted disease), bacterial meningitis, bone and joint infections, and skin and soft tissue infections. Cefotaxime is also used for the prevention of postoperative infections. Cefotaxime does not work for virus or fungus infections.
