Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disorder in which kidney function gradually deteriorates over time. Chronic renal disease is another name for CKD.
CKD is defined as ‘a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of less than 60mL/minute/1.73m2 for more than three months’, regardless of the cause, and split into five phases depending on GFR.
Cefoperazone appears to be a promising broad-spectrum antibiotic for people with varying degrees of renal impairment.
During hemodialysis, the half-life of cefoperazone reduces significantly. Following a dialysis phase, dosing should be planned.
If you have any side effects that concern you or do not go away, please contact your physician immediately.
