It has a broad spectrum bactericidal activity against a wide range of common pathogens, including b-lactamase producing strains like Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Haemophilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis, E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Proteus mirabilis. As with other cephalosporins, bactericidal activity of Cefexta results from inhibition of cell wall synthesis.
