Cephalosporins are a broad class of bactericidal beta-lactam antibiotics structurally related to penicillins and organized into distinct generations based on their antimicrobial spectrum.
They exert their therapeutic effect by binding to penicillin-binding proteins and inhibiting the transpeptidation step of bacterial peptidoglycan synthesis, which disrupts cell wall formation and leads to osmotic lysis and cell death.
Across their progressive generations, cephalosporins are indicated for a wide variety of mild to severe bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, meningitis, and surgical prophylaxis.
