5th Generation Cephalosporin Urgently Required To.save A Life by Inflective: 9:38am On Feb 04, 2016 |
Hello guys, anyone knows a place where I can get a 5th gen cephalosporin. Most places and pharmas have the 4th gen. Need ceftaroline or ceftobiprole urgently. |

Made some calls no luck so far.. A specific antibiotic is hardly ever a determinant on outcome of the treatment. Any particular reasons why an alternative cannot be used? |

Quite a long story but in summary, a cocktail of antibiotics has failed to control sepsis in a fellow health care provider and recent sensitivity result recommends either of these 2. |

Oh wow. Have called one of the biggest pharmacies in Lagos and ibadan. No luck. If this gets to front page you might just get lucky.. I don't even think either is registered in Nigeria. I'll check tomorrow tho.. But in the mean time explore alternatives.. |

It will be immensely difficult for many retail pharmacies and hospitals to stock 5th generation cephalosporins ....i doubt if its even popular with doctors and I doubt its even sold in Nigeria because it ain't in the national formulary |

Please explore other options cos I don't think these can be seen in any of our pharmacy stores at the moment. |

Thanks a lot guys. I really appreciate your feedback |

Sorry about your predicament. Try using meronem. It is a carbopenem. Very very active for sepsis and costly too. It will do the trick. |

Look out for a deep packet of pus. Even if you are a medic you need the help of supermedics by referring this patient to the appropriate place for the right thing to be done. Using a 5th generation cephalosporine antibiotics after a sensitivity test may not work if the right thing is not done. Anyway you only asked for where to buy drugs ( and me I no sabi o.) |

Baxilexi: Is Meronem the brand name? And where can it be found locally? |
Re: 5th Generation Cephalosporin Urgently Required To.save A Life by drered(m): 10:31am On Feb 13, 2016 |
Tequilah:Yeah. The API is Meropenem. You can find it in most pharmacies. 1 Like |
