Description
Ceftizoxime Sodium Injection
Healthy Inc is a specialized global supplier and exporter of metabolically stable third-generation cephalosporins. We provide high-purity Ceftizoxime Sodium Injection (1g), sourced from WHO–GMP certified sterile injectable facilities. This “Anaerobic Specialist” is a top export to gastroenterology wards, gynecology clinics, and government health ministries in Africa, LATAM, and Southeast Asia, serving as a unique third-generation agent with potent activity against anaerobes and 100% unchanged renal excretion.
Product Overview
This formulation contains Ceftizoxime Sodium, a third-generation cephalosporin that distinguishes itself by not being metabolized in the body.
The “Metabolic Survivor” Specialist:
- 100% Unchanged Excretion: Unlike Cefotaxime (which is metabolized), Ceftizoxime is not metabolized at all. It is excreted 100% unchanged in the urine. This results in extremely high, potent concentrations in the urinary tract, making it the ultimate weapon for difficult UTIs.
- Anaerobic Activity: It possesses superior activity against anaerobic bacteria (including Bacteroides fragilis) compared to Ceftriaxone or Cefotaxime. This makes it an excellent single-agent choice for intra-abdominal infections and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID).
- Gonorrhea Potency: It is highly effective against penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG), often used as an alternative to Ceftriaxone.
