Belongs to the class of beta-lactamase resistant penicillins. Used in the systemic treatment of infections. Treatment of infections caused by penicillinase-producing staphylococci; resp tract, skin & soft tissue infections; disseminated infections caused by pneumococci, group A β-hemolytic streptococci, penicillin G-resistant & penicillin G-sensitive staphylococci.
Cloxacillin is a bactericidal antibiotic that binds to 1 or more of the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) which in turn inhibit the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls, thereby inhibiting cell wall synthesis. This results to bacterial lysis due to ongoing activity of cell wall autolytic enzymes (autolysins and murein hydrolases) while cell wall assembly is arrested.
