About Cefotaxime

Cefotaxime is an antibiotic from the cephalosporin group. WHO describes it as a third-generation cephalosporin. It kills the bacteria that cause an infection. It comes as a powder that a doctor or nurse mixes into a liquid and gives as an injection into a muscle or a vein, or as a drip, usually in hospital.

What it is used for

  • Serious bacterial infections
  • Meningitis and other infections of the brain and spinal cord
  • Blood infections (septicaemia)
  • Lung and airway infections, including severe pneumonia
  • Infections inside the abdomen (tummy), such as peritonitis
  • Serious kidney and urine infections
  • Bone and joint infections
  • Heart valve infections (endocarditis)
  • Skin infections and infections of the female reproductive organs
  • Gonorrhoea (a sexually transmitted infection)
  • Preventing or treating infection around surgery, including caesarean delivery

What it is not for

  • Cefotaxime does not work for colds, flu or other infections caused by viruses.
  • WHO places cefotaxime in its 'Watch' group of antibiotics. These are important antibiotics that bacteria are more likely to become resistant to, so they should be used with care.
  • Typhoid in Pakistan: US health authorities (CDC) report that the extensively drug-resistant (XDR) typhoid linked to Pakistan, mostly Karachi and Hyderabad, is resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, the group that includes cefotaxime. It may not work for this typhoid, so doctors should choose treatment using test results.

Common side effects

  • Pain, soreness, redness or swelling where the injection was given
  • Swelling or soreness of the vein after an injection or drip into a vein
  • Feeling sick, being sick, stomach pain or diarrhoea, especially at the start
  • Headache or dizziness
  • Thrush (a yeast infection)
  • Painful joints
  • Changes in blood tests, such as blood cells or liver tests

Get medical help straight away if

  • Get emergency help for signs of a severe allergic reaction: swelling of the face, lips, tongue, throat or eyes, trouble breathing or swallowing, hoarseness, or hives.
  • Get urgent help for a serious skin reaction: red target-like patches, blisters, peeling skin, sores in the mouth, eyes or genitals, or a widespread rash with high fever and swollen glands.
  • Watery or bloody diarrhoea with stomach cramps or fever. This can happen during treatment or some time after it ends. Do not take anti-diarrhoea medicines such as loperamide without asking a doctor.
  • Fits (seizures), passing out, abnormal movements or confusion, mainly in people with kidney problems.
  • An irregular heartbeat or a painful, swollen vein after an injection into a vein.
  • Yellow skin or eyes (jaundice).
  • Signs of blood problems: unusual bruising or bleeding, sore throat, mouth ulcers, or tiredness and pale skin.
  • Fever, sore throat, chills or other signs of infection coming back.

Who should not take it, or should take care

  • It must not be given to people allergic to cefotaxime or any other cephalosporin antibiotic.
  • It must not be given to people who have had a severe allergic reaction to penicillin or another beta-lactam antibiotic. Not everyone allergic to penicillin is allergic to cefotaxime, so tell your doctor about any antibiotic allergy.
  • It must not be given to anyone who has ever had a severe skin rash, peeling, blistering or mouth sores after cefotaxime or another cephalosporin.
  • If it is injected into a muscle, it may be mixed with lidocaine (a local anaesthetic). This mixture is not used in babies and young children, people allergic to lidocaine, or people with heart block (without a pacemaker) or heart failure.
  • Tell your doctor if you have kidney problems. You will be checked closely and may need a lower dose.
  • Tell your doctor if you are on a low-salt (low-sodium) diet, as the medicine contains sodium.
  • Tell your doctor if you have had colitis or other bowel disease, diabetes, cancer, heart failure, or recent surgery or injury.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: tell your doctor before treatment if you are pregnant, might be pregnant or are breastfeeding.

Medicines and drinks that can interact

  • Aminoglycoside antibiotics such as gentamicin, streptomycin or neomycin: your kidneys will be checked more closely
  • Some penicillin antibiotics, such as azlocillin and mezlocillin
  • Strong water tablets (diuretics) such as furosemide
  • Probenecid (a gout medicine)
  • Anti-inflammatory painkillers (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen and naproxen: ask a doctor before taking them
  • Hormonal birth control may work less well, according to US information (MedlinePlus). Use another method of contraception and ask your doctor.
  • Some urine sugar tests can give a false positive result. If you have diabetes, ask which test to use.
  • Tell the staff before any blood transfusion or lab test that you are having cefotaxime.
  • Tell your doctor about all medicines, vitamins and herbal products you take.

Always tell your doctor and pharmacist about every medicine, supplement and herbal product you take.

Using it safely

  • It should only be given when a doctor prescribes it. Complete the course exactly as your doctor directs, even if you feel better, so the infection does not come back and bacteria do not become resistant.
  • Tell your doctor if you do not start to feel better, or you feel worse.
  • If treatment goes on for a longer time, you may need blood tests to check your blood counts. Keep all appointments and tests.
  • It can make you dizzy. Do not drive or use machines if you feel dizzy.
  • If you are given cefotaxime to use at home, a health professional will show you how. Store it as they explain, in its box to protect it from light, and out of the reach of children.
  • Never use the solution if it is cloudy or has particles in it. Do not throw medicines in household waste or down the drain; return them to a pharmacy.

Common questions

Is cefotaxime safe if I am allergic to penicillin?
Not always. It must not be used if you have had a severe allergic reaction to penicillin or a similar antibiotic. Some people with a mild penicillin allergy can have it, so always tell your doctor about any antibiotic allergy.

Why is cefotaxime given as an injection?
It comes as a powder that is mixed into a liquid and given into a muscle or a vein. It is mostly used for serious infections, usually in hospital, and sometimes at home after training.

Can cefotaxime affect my contraceptive pill?
US information (MedlinePlus) says it may make hormonal birth control work less well, so use another method as well and ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Does cefotaxime work for typhoid in Pakistan?
Not for the XDR typhoid strain. CDC reports that this strain, linked to Pakistan, is resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, the group cefotaxime belongs to. Doctors should choose treatment based on a blood culture test where possible.
