Description
Cefotaxime Sodium Product Overview
Cefotaxime sodium (C16H16N5NaO7S2) is a white to slightly yellowish powder that dissolves freely in water. It was one of the first third-generation cephalosporins and remains widely used in hospitals.
In addition, pharmaceutical companies fill the sterile powder into vials for reconstitution and intravenous or intramuscular injection. Similarly, related injectable cephalosporins in our range include Cefuroxime sodium, Cefazoline sodium and the fourth-generation Cefepime + Arginine Sterile.
Sterile beta-lactam production requires aseptic processing, dedicated facilities as well as sterility and endotoxin testing. Zyntex therefore supplies cefotaxime sodium only to licensed producers with these capabilities.
