Cefacetrile is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, primarily used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of bacterial infections caused by susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. It has limited human use and is not currently approved for clinical use in humans in most countries.
Data for pharmacokinetics of cefacetrile in humans is scarce. Some estimates are available for parenteral (intravenous) use based on studies in animals and limited human data.
