This study aims to prove the complexation of cefpodoxime proxetil (CP) by hydroxypropyl-βcyclodextrin (HP-βCD) in the presence of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Na CMC), and investigates the permeability of CP in the complexes. The CP–HP-β-CD complex was prepared by kneading method and was characterized by Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and D...

The levels of degradation of cefetamet pivoxil (CAT), cefuroxime axetil (CAE), and cefpodoxime proxetil (CPD) in 0.6 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and human intestinal juice (pH 7.4) at 37 degreesC over 24 h were compared. Significant differences in the time courses of degradation and in the patterns of degradation products were observed. (i) The relative proportions of the Delta2- and Delta3-cep...

Cephalosporins are of key clinical importance for treatment of bacterial infections. In the past decade, many cephalosporins have been synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity. These cephalosporins, with broad spectra of activity and high stability against various β-lactamases such as cefixime, cefteram pivoxil, and cefpodoxime proxetil, have been developed and introduced in clinica...

ABSTRACT. Spectrophotometric investigation of the interaction of Cefpodoxime proxetil (CFP) with Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn in acidic medium showed the formation of 1:1 complex. The absorption spectrum of pure drug exhibits two prominent peaks at 270 and 345 nm. Its spectra scanned at several pH exhibited two isosbestic points (305 and 330 nm) indicating the presence of zwitterionic cond...
