cefuroxime and Neutropenia

cefuroxime has been researched along with Neutropenia in 5 studies

Cefuroxime: Broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotic resistant to beta-lactamase. It has been proposed for infections with gram-negative and gram-positive organisms, GONORRHEA, and HAEMOPHILUS.
cefuroxime : A 3-(carbamoyloxymethyl)cephalosporin compound having a 7-(2Z)-2-(furan-2-yl)-2-(methoxyimino)acetamido side chain.

Neutropenia: A decrease in the number of NEUTROPHILS found in the blood.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The objective of this investigation was to assess retrospectively the safety and the efficacy of oral ciprofloxacin plus cefuroxime axetil compared to the combination of oral ciprofloxacin plus amoxicillin/clavulanate, as initial outpatient treatment, in low-risk cancer patients with fever and neutropenia."7.74Comparison of two oral regimens for the outpatient treatment of low-risk cancer patients with chemotherapy-induced neutropenia and fever: ciprofloxacin plus cefuroxime axetil versus ciprofloxacin plus amoxicillin/clavulanate. ( Karabelis, A; Kordossis, T; Kosmas, C; Sipsas, NV; Skopelitis, E; Tsavaris, N; Vadiaka, M; Ziakas, PD, 2007)
