cefepime

Cefepime is a type of antibiotic used by doctors to treat serious bacterial infections. It belongs to a class called cephalosporins, which work by killing bacteria or stopping their growth. Cefepime is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those that are resistant to other antibiotics. It is often given through an injection or IV in hospitals for infections such as pneumonia, urinary tract infections, or skin infections. Like all antibiotics, it should only be used under medical supervision to ensure it is appropriate and effective for the specific infection.
