Whereas other cephalosporins are degraded by many plasmid- and chromosome-mediated beta-lactamases, cefepime is stable and is a front line agent when infection with Enterobacteriaceae is known or suspected. Cefepime is commonly used to treat severe nosocomial pneumonia and neutropenic fever.

Cefepime is marketed under the trade names Maxipime, Maxcef, Cepimax, Cepimex, and Axepim.
