Hello Everyone !
I have with me today a somewhat easy way to remember the Cephalosporins. To rescue you of the Cepha-pocalypse, if you will. Rid you of your Cepha-problems with some Cepha-lutions. (Had to say that. Sorry for the Cephalameness ;;) .)

So the 1st Generation are 3 drugs .
Remember : ZoLeDrox:
So add cef everywhere now
CefaZoline
CephaLexine
CephaDroxil

CefaZoline
CephaLexine
CephaDroxil
Now the 2nd Generation.
Remember : ChloroFuro carbons
So CefaChlor And Cefuroxime
(2nd is the least imp generation. So to hell with it. )

The 3rd Generation is the most important.
So first the Parenteral ones.
Remember:
Cef (Pronounce Saif like Saif Ali Khan) Opera (like Oprah Winfrey)
Taxi me
Cefti(Like Safety) ke liye
Axe and
Cefta ke liye not even a
Dime (like the money dime)
So first the Parenteral ones.
Remember:
Cef (Pronounce Saif like Saif Ali Khan) Opera (like Oprah Winfrey)
Taxi me
Cefti(Like Safety) ke liye
Axe and
Cefta ke liye not even a

So add Cef to Opera and Taxi-me to get Cefoperazone And Cefotaxime.
And further add Cefti / Cefta to the next two respectively to get :
Ceftriaxone
And Ceftazidime
So that gives you 4 Parenteral drugs. Cefoperazone Cefotaxime Ceftriaxone Ceftazidime.

Now Oral ones.
(Whenever I think of 'Oral' - Denaerys Targaryean comes to my mind. God knows the reason for this Ceph-oral Problems ;;) )

Remember : Denaerys Xi (pronounce Chi) Beauty
Add Cef related prefixes to each of the 3 words to get your drugs.
Cefdinir Cefixime And Ceftibuten.
Add Cef related prefixes to each of the 3 words to get your drugs.
Cefdinir Cefixime And Ceftibuten.
And That, friends, is the story of the Cephalosporins. Now there's 4th and 5th generations too. But doing them all together can lead to a Cepha-tastrophe. ;;) That's all this time. Hope you found this helpful. Let me know what other topics you'll would like to learn in an easier way.
Bye :)
