4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Floxapen is indicated for the treatment of infections due to
β-lactamase-producing staphylococci and other sensitive
Gram-positive organisms such as streptococci (see section 5.1 for
details on sensitive strains). Typical indications include:
_ _
_Skin and soft tissue infections:_
- Boils, abscesses,carbuncles,furunculosis, cellulites, infected
burns, infected wounds, impetigo, protection for skin grafts,
infected skin conditions e.g. ulcer, eczema, and acne
_Respiratory tract infections:_
- Pneumonia, lung abscess, sinusitis, tonsillitis, quinsy,
pharyngitis, empyema, otitis media and externa
_Other infections caused by Floxapen-sensitive organisms:_
- Osteomyelitis, arthritis, urinary tract infection, small intestine
and colon infection, meningitis, endocarditis, septicaemia
Floxapen is also indicated for prophylaxis in cardiovascular surgery
(valve prostheses, artery prostheses) and in orthopedic
surgery (arthroplasty, osteosynthesis and arthrotomy) because of the
dominant pathogenic potential of staphylococci during
such surgical procedures.
Consideration should be given to official guidance on the appropriate
use of antibacterial agents.
