Used in the treatment of bacterial infections, particularly those caused by susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. It is effective in respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and intra-abdominal infections. Due to its stability against beta-lactamases, it offers advantage in infections involving beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. Administered parenterally, it achieves high serum concentrations and is often used in hospital settings for moderate to severe infections.
