BRAND NAME: Ceftin, Zinacef. DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Cefuroxime is a semisynthetic cephalosporin antibiotic, chemically similar to penicillin. Cephalosporins stop or slow the growth of bacterial cells by preventing bacteria from forming the cell wall that surrounds each cell.
Ceftin is a prodrug, which means that the body converts Ceftin (cefuroxime axetil) into its active form (cefuroxime). Cefuroxime by itself is used as an injectable antibiotic, but it is not absorbed into the bloodstream well when taken in an oral form.
