Mabelio
Mabelio Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Mabelio is a cephalosporin antibiotic with activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It was discovered by Basilea Pharmaceutica and is being developed by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research and Development. Mabelio is the first cephalosporin to demonstrate clinical efficacy in patients with infections due to methicillin-resistant staphylococci and, if approved by regulatory authorities, is expected to be a useful addition to the armamentarium of agents for the treatment of complicated skin infections and pneumonia.
Mabelio, a cephalosporin antibiotic, is active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Mabelio is a cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat both community and hospital-acquired pneumonia caused by susceptible bacteria.
For the treatment of serious bacterial infections in hospitalised patients.

How Mabelio works
Cephalosporins, such as ceftobiprole, are bactericidal and have the same mode of action as other beta-lactam antibiotics (such as penicillins). Cephalosporins disrupt the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. The peptidoglycan layer is important for cell wall structural integrity, especially in Gram-positive organisms. The final transpeptidation step in the synthesis of the peptidoglycan is facilitated by transpeptidases known as penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). PBPs bind to the D-Ala-D-Ala at the end of muropeptides (peptidoglycan precursors) to crosslink the peptidoglycan. Beta-lactam antibiotics mimic this site and competitively inhibit PBP crosslinking of peptidoglycan.
