Pharmacology

Ceftibuten is the dihydrate salt of Ceftibuten, is a semi-synthetic Cephalosporin antibiotic for oral administration. Ceftibuten exerts its bactericidal action by binding to essential target proteins of the bacterial cell wall. This binding leads to inhibition of cell-wall synthesis.

Precautions

As with other broad-spectrum antibiotics, prolonged treatment may result in the possible emergence and overgrowth of resistant organisms. Careful observation of the patient is essential. The dose of Ceftibuten may require adjustment in patients with varying degrees of renal insufficiency. Ceftibuten should be prescribed with caution to individuals with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis.
