OBJECTIVES
2
Cefalotin, also called cephalothin, is a
semisynthetic first generation cephalosporin
antibiotic.
It is administered parenterally (mainly
intravenously).
Active against gram-positive organisms but
limited activity against gram-negative bacteria.
INTRODUCTION
3
IUPAC Name: (6R,7R)-3-(acetyloxymethyl)-8-
oxo-7-[(2-thiophen-2-ylacetyl)amino]-5-thia-1-
azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid.
Chemical Names: Cephalothin; Cefalotin;
Cefalothin; Cephalotin; Cefalotine; Keflin.
Brand Names:
 Averon-1®
 Cemastin®
 Coaxin®
 Keflin®
 Seffin®

The presence of a beta-lactam moiety makes it susceptible
to degradation by some bacterial strains.
The structure of cefalotin has a six-membered ring
attached to the four-membered ring.
A β-lactam (beta-lactam) ring is a four-membered lactam.
(A lactam is a cyclic amide).
STRUCTURAL CHEMISTRY

o Molecular formula: C16H16N2O6S2
o Molar mass: 396.43804 g/mol
o Hydrogen Bond Donor Count: 2
o Hydrogen Bond Acceptor Count: 8
o Melting Point: 160-160.5 °C
o Water solubility: 158 mg/L
o pKa: 3.8
Chemical and Physical Properties
Stability
Solutions of cefalotin may darken, especially if stored at room
temperature. A slight discoloration does not affect potency.
Solutions stored under refrigeration may precipitate, but the
precipitate can be redissolved by warming to room
temperature with constant agitation. 6
Cefalotin is available in the following forms:
Injectable Solution
 ROUTE: IV injection, IM injection
Forms of Medication

First-generation cephalosporins are mainly
active predominantly against Gram-positive
bacteria.
Cephalothin is used in the treatment of
infections caused by Gram positive organisms
like pneumococci, Streptococcus Viridians,
Staphylococcus Aureus.
Also active against gram negative organisms
like E.coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus
mirabilis.
INDICATIONS
9
• Bone and joint infection
• Surgical infections
• CVS infections
• Genitourinary tract infections
• Respiratory tract infections
• Soft tissue and skin infections
• Cellulitis
• Endocarditis
• Alternative drug of choice in Peritonitis, Septic
abortion, Surgical prophylaxis.
Cefalotin is used to prevent-
10
Absorption: Cefalotin is not well absorbed from
GI tract, but it is rapidly absorbed from the site
of injection.
Volume of distribution: 0.26 l/kg
Plasma protien binding: 65-80%
Metabolism: Hepatic.
Renal Excretion: >65%
Plasma half life: 35 minutes.
Toxicity: Rat intravenous LD50 is 4000 mg/kg.
Pharmacokinetics
11
The bactericidal activity of cefalotin results from
the inhibition of cell wall synthesis via affinity for
penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs).
Like penicillin and other cephalosporins, cefalotin
works by disrupting the last stage of bacterial cell
wall synthesis, leading to autolysis of the bacteria
cells by autolytic enzymes such as the autolysins.
Some bacteria gain the ability to produce beta-
lactamases, which can degrade the beta-lactam
moiety present in penicillins and cephalosporins,
and can thus be resistant to those drugs.

Drug Interactions
Calcium Gluconate
Diphenhydramine
Frusemide or Furosemide
Penicillamine
Probenecid (increases the blood level of Cefalotin)
Amikacin (Increases the risk of nephrotoxicity)
INTERACTIONS

•Dialysis
•Sodium restriction
Disease Interactions
14
Local reactions: Swelling, redness, or pain at the injection
site may occur.
Hypersensitivity: Hypersensitivity reactions occur in up to
15% of patients with a history of penicillin allergy.
Manifestations may include-
• Urticarial or maculopapular rash
• Bronchospasm
• Fever
• Anaphylaxis, including severe hypotension and cardiac
arrest
Renal: Nephrotoxicity & Renal insufficiency
SIDE EFFECTS
15
Hematologic:
thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, and rare cases
of pancytopenia.
Gastrointestinal: Diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.
Warning / Precautions
Cephalothin should be used with caution in patients
with impaired kidney or liver function, patients with
aspirin hypersensitivity, because it may cause allergic
reactions (including bronchial asthma).
Precaution to be taken during renal disease and in
Gastro-intestinal diseases (especially colitis, enteritis)
16
Cephalothin is contraindicated in pregnancy, lactation,
hypersensitivity and in pseudomembranous colitis.
Drug should not be given to Pediatrics and patients
suffering from Kidney dysfunction.
CONTRAINDICATION
Cefalotin and Pregnancy
The FDA categorizes medications based on safety for use
during pregnancy. Five categories - A, B, C, D, and X, are
used to classify the possible risks to an unborn baby when
a medication is taken during pregnancy.
Cefalotin falls into category B
