Cefdinir is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. It binds to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located inside the bacterial cell wall, disrupting the peptidoglycan layer's formation, which ultimately leads to cell lysis and death. Cefdinir is effective against a broad spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Its mechanism of action is similar to that of other beta-lactam antibiotics.
