Background

  • Novel antipseudomonal antibiotic

Mechanism of Action

  • Structure is similar to ceftazidime, but with C3 substitution
  • Ceftolozane is stable against AmpC β-lactamases and is somewhat resistant to efflux pumps and
  • Tazobactam is active against most class A and some class C β-lactamases
  • Bactericidal

Acitivity

  • GNB:
    • MDRPsA with less affinity for pseudomonal AmpC and less affected by efflux and porins
    • Enterobacterales, including many ESBLs
    • Not active against carbapenemase-producing organisms
    • Limited activity against Oxa-48
    • Limited activity against Acinetobacter and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia
  • GPC: possibly active against Strep pneumo and pyogenes, but none against Staph and Enterococcus
  • Variable against anaerobes

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics

  • Half-life about 2.5 hours
  • Protein binding 20%
