- Endocarditis
- Borreliosis
Treatment of patients with bacteraemia that occurs in association with, or is suspected to be associated with, any of the infections listed above.
Perioperative prophylaxis. For surgical operations with increased risk of infections with anaerobic pathogens, e.g. colorectal surgery, a combination with an appropriate drug with activity against anaerobes is recommended.
Dosage and Administration:
Cefotaxime may be administered by intravenous bolus injection or intravenous infusion or by intramuscular injection after reconstitution of the solution.
Dosage and mode of administration should be determined by the severity of the infection, susceptibility of the causative organism and the patient's condition. Therapy may be started before the result of microbiological tests are known.
