Cefmenoxime is primarily used as an antibiotic in the treatment of various bacterial infections. It is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, making it a valuable option for treating respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, septicemia, and infections in the abdominal and pelvic regions. Its broad-spectrum activity allows it to be used in both hospital and community settings. Additionally, it is often employed in surgical prophylaxis to prevent infections during and after procedures. The drug is typically administered intravenously or intramuscularly to ensure rapid and effective delivery. Its stability against beta-lactamase enzymes enhances its efficacy in treating resistant bacterial strains.
