Cephalosporin Review
 Antipseudomonal –
Ceftazadime and Cefepime
 Anti-MRSA –
Ceftaroline
 Anti-Enterococcal –
None (Ceftaroline has in-vitro activity against
E. faecalis)
 Enterobacter sp. can develop resistance to
cephalosporins during treatment, therefore
not the treatment of choice
Carbapenems

resort.
Clindamycin
Inhibits protein synthesis by binding
