[Concentration of cefotiam in the human bone marrow fluid and bone tissue (author's transl)]
The Japanese Journal of Antibiotics
|April 1, 1982
Abstract:
The preoperative administration of cefotiam (CTM) 1 g by intravenous drip infusion for 30 minutes was performed. And the concentration of CTM in peripheral blood, bone marrow fluid and bone tissue was investigated. CTM was smoothly transmigrated from blood to bone tissue, and kept on the concentration in bone tissue over MIC values for several hours. These preliminary results encourage us to think that CTM may be as useful in prophylaxis against postoperative infections.
