Uses
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Cefazolin for Injection, USP and other antibacterial drugs, Cefazolin for Injection, USP should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is indicated for the treatment of the following infections when caused by susceptible bacteria.
Respiratory tract infections due to Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes.
Injectable benzathine penicillin is considered the drug of choice in treatment and prevention of streptococcal infections, including the prophylaxis of rheumatic fever.
Cefazolin is effective in the eradication of streptococci from the nasopharynx; however, data establishing the efficacy of cefazolin in the subsequent prevention of rheumatic fever are not available.
Urinary tract infections due to Escherichia coli, and Proteus mirabilis.
Skin and skin structure infections due to S. aureus, S. pyogenes, and Streptococcus agalactiae.
Biliary infections due to E. coli, various isolates of streptococci, P. mirabilis, and S. aureus.
Bone and joint infections due to S. aureus.
Genital infections due to E. coli, and P. mirabilis.
Septicemia due to S. pneumoniae, S. aureus, P. mirabilis, and E. coli.
Endocarditis due to S. aureus and S. pyogenes.
The prophylactic administration of cefazolin preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively may reduce the incidence of certain postoperative infections in patients undergoing surgical procedures which are classified as contaminated or potentially contaminated (e.g., vaginal hysterectomy, and cholecystectomy in high-risk patients such as those older than 70 years, with acute cholecystitis, obstructive jaundice, or common duct bile stones).
The perioperative use of cefazolin may also be effective in surgical patients in whom infection at the operative site would present a serious risk (e.g., during open-heart surgery and prosthetic arthroplasty).
If there are signs of infection, specimens for cultures should be obtained for the identification of the causative organism so that appropriate therapy may be instituted.
History

Other Information
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is a semi-synthetic cephalosporin for parenteral administration. It is the sodium salt of 3-{[(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio]-methyl}-8-oxo-7-[2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)acetamido]-5-thia-1-azabicyclo [4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid.
Cefazolin sodium USP has the following structural formula:
C14H13N8NaO4S3 M.W. 476.5
The pH of the reconstituted solution is between 4 and 6.
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is a white to cream sterile powder. The color of Cefazolin for Injection, USP solutions may range from pale yellow to yellow without a change in potency.
Cefazolin for Injection, USP is supplied in 10 grams Pharmacy Bulk Package. Each Pharmacy Bulk Package contains cefazolin sodium equivalent to 10 grams of cefazolin. The sodium content is approximately 48 mg (2.1 mEq) per gram of cefazolin sodium.
It is to be administered by intravenous route.
A Pharmacy Bulk Package is a container of a sterile preparation for intravenous use that contains many single doses. The contents are intended for use in a pharmacy admixture service and are restricted to the preparation of admixtures for intravenous infusion. FURTHER DILUTION IS REQUIRED BEFORE USE.

2.1 Adult PopulationThe recommended adult dosages are outlined in Table 1. Cefazolin for Injection should be administered intravenously (IV) over approximately 30 minutes.
After constitution, cefazolin can be administered by parenteral administration. However, the intent of this pharmacy bulk package is for the preparation of the solutions for intravenous infusion only.
Table 1: Recommended Dosing Schedule in Adult Patients with CrCl Greater Than or Equal To 55 mL/min.* In rare instances, doses of up to 12 grams of cefazolin per day have been used.
Site and Type of Infection Dose Frequency Moderate to severe infections 500 mg to 1 gram every 6 to 8 hours Mild infections caused by susceptible gram-positive cocci 250 mg to 500 mg every 8 hours Acute, uncomplicated urinary tract infections 1 gram every 12 hours Pneumococcal pneumonia 500 mg every 12 hours Severe, life-threatening infections (e.g., endocarditis, septicemia)* 1 gram to 1.5 grams every 6 hours 2.2 Perioperative Prophylactic UseTo prevent postoperative infection in contaminated or potentially contaminated surgery, recommended doses are:
1 gram IV administered ½ hour to 1 hour prior to the start of surgery. For lengthy operative procedures (e.g., 2 hours or more), 500 mg to 1 gram IV during surgery (administration modified depending on the duration of the operative procedure). 500 mg to 1 gram IV every 6 to 8 hours for 24 hours postoperatively.It is important that (i) the preoperative dose be given just prior (1/2 hour to 1 hour) to the start of surgery so that adequate antibacterial concentrations are present in the serum and tissues at the time of initial surgical incision; and (ii) cefazolin be administered, if necessary, at appropriate intervals during surgery to provide sufficient concentrations of the antibacterial drug at the anticipated moments of greatest exposure to infective organisms.
The prophylactic administration of cefazolin should usually be discontinued within a 24-hour period after the surgical procedure. In surgery where the occurrence of infection may be particularly devastating (e.g., open-heart surgery and prosthetic arthroplasty), the prophylactic administration of cefazolin may be continued for 3 to 5 days following the completion of surgery.
2.3 Patients with Renal ImpairmentCefazolin may be used in patients with renal impairment with the dosage adjustments outlined in Table 2. All reduced dosage recommendations apply after an initial loading dose appropriate to the severity of the infection.
Table 2: Dosage Adjustment for Patients with Renal Impairment Creatinine Clearance Dose Frequency 55 mL/min. or greater full dose normal frequency 35 to 54 mL/min. full dose every 8 hours or longer 11 to 34 mL/min. 1/2 usual dose every 12 hours 10 mL/min. or less 1/2 usual dose every 18 to 24 hours 2.4 Pediatric DosageIn pediatric patients, a total daily dosage of 25 to 50 mg per kg (approximately 10 to 20 mg per pound) of body weight, divided into 3 or 4 equal doses, is effective for most mild to moderately severe infections. Total daily dosage may be increased to 100 mg per kg (45 mg per pound) of body weight for severe infections. Since safety for use in premature infants and in neonates has not been established, the use of Cefazolin for Injection in these patients is not recommended.
In pediatric patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 70 to 40 mL/min.), 60 percent of the normal daily dose given in equally divided doses every 12 hours should be sufficient. In patients with moderate impairment (creatinine clearance of 40 to 20 mL/min.), 25 percent of the normal daily dose given in equally divided doses every 12 hours should be adequate. Pediatric patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 20 to 5 mL/min.) may be given 10 percent of the normal daily dose every 24 hours. All dosage recommendations apply after an initial loading dose.
2.5 Preparation for Use of Cefazolin for InjectionReconstitution
Preparation of Parenteral Solution
Parenteral drug products should be SHAKEN WELL when reconstituted, and inspected visually for particulate matter prior to administration. If particulate matter is evident in reconstituted fluids, the drug solutions should be discarded.
Reconstituted solutions may range in color from pale yellow to yellow without a change in potency.
Directions for Proper Use of a Pharmacy Bulk Package
Not for direct infusion. The Pharmacy Bulk Package is for use in the hospital pharmacy admixture service only in a suitable work area, such as a laminar flow hood. Using aseptic technique, the closure may be penetrated only one time using a suitable sterile dispensing set that allows measured dispensing of the contents. Use of a syringe and needle is not recommended as it may cause leakage. After entry, use entire contents of Pharmacy Bulk Package promptly. The entire contents of the Pharmacy Bulk Package should be dispensed within 4 hours of initial entry. This time limit should begin with the introduction of the solvent or diluent into the Pharmacy Bulk Package. Discard Pharmacy Bulk Package within 4 hours after initial entry.
