Flomoxef Free Acid (syn: Flomoxef) is a β-lactam antibiotic, an oxa-1 cephamycin belonging to the oxacephem group. It has broad-spectrum activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It was synthesized in 1982 by Shionogi & Co, Osaka, Japan.
Unlike Latamoxef, it has [1-(2-hydroxethyl)-1H-tetrazol-5'yl] thiomethyl (HTT) as a side chain at the 3'-position of the cephem group instead of NMTT, and it also has a modification of 7 beta-amino side chain.
Flomoxef Free Acid is soluble in DMSO. It has comparable biological activity to Flomoxef Sodium.
