What type of infections is cefiderocol approved for?

  1. Hepatitis B

  2. Complicated UTI/Pyelo

  3. Dental infections

  4. Bone infections

The correct answer is: Complicated UTI/Pyelo

Cefiderocol is an antibiotic drug that is approved specifically for treating complicated urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis, which is a type of kidney infection. It is not approved for treating hepatitis B, dental infections, or bone infections. While Cefiderocol may have the ability to treat other infections, this has not been approved by regulatory bodies and should not be used for those purposes without consulting a healthcare professional.
