These diseases consisted of 13 pneumonia, 3 upper respiratory tract infections, 3 pyelonephritis, 2 other urinary tract infections and one purulent meningitis. Cefotiam was effective in all cases. 2.

Cefotiam, a new broad-spectrum cephalosporin was used for the treatment of 30 cases of urinary-tract infections (UTI). Patients, 20 females, 10 males were between 23 and 76 years old. UTI were 17 cystitis, 9 pyelonephritis and 4 prostatitis. Bacteria isolated from urine were : 24 E. Coli, 3 Proteus mirabilis, 1 Providencia, 3 Klebsiella, 3 Enterobacter, 2 Serratia, 1 Staphylococcus coagulase--, DNAse--. MIC's of cefotiam ranged from 0.003 to 32 micrograms/ml (median MIC : 0.06 microgram/ml). Cefotiam was given intramuscularly in monotherapy, at the daily dosage of 1 and 2 g in two injections during 7 to 28 days. Followup of patients were at least 4 weeks after the end of treatment. Therapeutic results were : 15 cures and 2 failures by relapse in 17 cystitis, 6 cures and 3 failures by relapse in 9 pyelonephritis, 4 cures in 4 prostatitis. General tolerance was excellent in all cases. Intramusculary injections were well tolerated with a 2 p. cent lidocain solution. Biological tolerance and particularly renal tolerance was good in all patients.
