AVYCAZ is an antibacterial combination product consisting of the semisynthetic cephalosporin ceftazidime pentahydrate and the beta-lactamase inhibitor avibactam sodium for intravenous administration. Ceftazidime Ceftazidime is a semisynthetic, beta-lactam antibacterial drug. It is the pentahydrate of (6 R ,7 R , Z )-7-(2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-(2-carboxypropan-2-yloxyimino)acetamido)-8-oxo-3-(pyridinium-1-ylmethyl)-5-thia-1-aza-bicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylate. Its molecular weight is 636.6. The empirical formula is C 22 H 32 N 6 O 12 S 2 . Figure 1. Chemical structure of ceftazidime pentahydrate Avibactam Avibactam sodium chemical name is sodium [(2S,5R)-2-carbamoyl-7-oxo-1,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-6-yl] sulfate. Its molecular weight is 287.23. The empirical formula is C 7 H 10 N 3 O 6 SNa. Figure 2. Chemical structure of avibactam sodium AVYCAZ 2.5 grams (ceftazidime and avibactam) for injection is a white to yellow sterile powder for constitution consisting of ceftazidime pentahydrate and avibactam sodium packaged in glass vials. The formulation also contains sodium carbonate. Each AVYCAZ 2.5 grams single-dose vial contains ceftazidime 2 grams (equivalent to 2.601 grams sterile ceftazidime pentahydrate/sodium carbonate) and avibactam 0.5 grams (equivalent to 0.544 grams sterile avibactam sodium). The sodium carbonate content of the mixture is 236.5 mg/vial. The total sodium content of the mixture is approximately 146 mg (6.4 mEq)/vial.
