    Ceftaroline Dihydrochloride is a fifth-generation cephalosporin, a broad-spectrum β-lactam active against Gram-positive organisms including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, as well as non-β-lactamase-producing Gram-negative organisms. Ceftaroline was developed by Forest Laboratories under a license from Takeda. In vitro studies show a similar spectrum to ceftobiprole, the only other 5th generation cephalosporin to date. Analytical methods of ceftaroline quantification for biological samples is scarce. Ceftaroline exhibits time-dependent bactericidal activity.
