Azlocillin is an acylampicillin antibiotic with an extended spectrum of activity and greater in vitro potency than the carboxy penicillins. Azlocillin is similar to mezlocillin and piperacillin. It demonstrates antibacterial activity against a broad spectrum of bacteria, including "Pseudomonas aeruginosa" and, in contrast to most cephalosporins, exhibits activity against enterococci.
