==Overview==
Ceftaroline fosamil (INN) /sɛfˈtærɵliːn/, brand name Teflaro in the US and Zinforo in Europe, is an advanced-generation[1] cephalosporinantibiotic. It is active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Gram-positive bacteria. It retains the activity of later-generation cephalosporins having broad-spectrum activity against Gram-negative bacteria. It is currently being investigated for community-acquired pneumonia[2] and complicated skin and skin structure infection.
