In Vitro Cefepime chloride exerts its antibacterial effects by binding to penicillin-binding proteins[2].
In Vivo Cefepime chloride (80 mg/kg; i.p.) significantly increases the half-life and mice surviveed[4]. Animal Model: Male CD-1 mice[4] Dosage: 80 mg/kg Administration: I.p. Result: Significantly prolonged the half-life of cefepime and all mice survived at 18-22 mg/kg cisplatin, and when pretreatment with 26 mg/kg cisplatin significantly decreased survival with the half-life of cefepime was not significantly longer than of 18 mg/kg cisplatin.
