Biological Activity

Description Cefadroxil(BL-S 578 hydrate) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic of the cephalosporin type, effective in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial infections.
In vitro

Cefadroxil is a first generation aminocephalosporin with good patient compliance, a long-acting therapeutic effect, high solubility and relatively broad spectrum of anti-bacterial activity. Cefadroxil is also a substrate of the intestinal peptide transporter PepT1, which is primarily responsible for the drug’s uptake across the apical membrane of small intestine[1].

In vivo

Cefadroxil has low plasma protein binding (~20%) and good oral bioavailability of at least 90%. Renal excretion is the primary route of elimination, with more than 90% of the orally administered drug being excreted unchanged in urine over 24 hours[1].
