Cefprozil (CFPZ, BMY-28100) granules was administered to a group of pediatric patients. The new oral cephalosporin, CFPZ, was evaluated clinically in 42 pediatric patients, and a pharmacokinetic study was performed in 6 patients. Serum and urinary concentrations of CFPZ were determined in 6 patients who were given single dose of 7.5 or 15.0 mg/kg. Serum concentrations were determined at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after dosing. Urinary concentrations were measured for periods of 0-6 hours after dosing. With oral administrations of 7.5 mg/kg and 15.0 mg/kg, peak serum concentrations were 2.13 micrograms/ml and 6.22 micrograms/ml, respectively, at 2 hours, and biological half-lives were 1.06 hours and 1.36 hours, respectively. Urinary recovery rates were 44.8% and 56.1%. The clinical evaluation was conducted in 41 patients including 16 patients with acute tonsillitis, 8 patients with lacunar tonsillitis, 4 patients with scarlet fever, 3 patients with acute bronchitis, 1 patient each with pertussis, furuncle, impetigo and lymphadenitis, and 6 patients with urinary tract infections. The ages of the patients were 10 month to 11 years 1 month, and they were treated with CFPZ at doses ranging 9.0-45.0 mg/kg daily for 3-14 days, the overall clinical efficacy rate was 92.7%. An eradication rate of 79.2% was achieved for 28 strains of 8 species identified in the patients. No side effects were observed. Abnormal laboratory test results obtained were eosinophilia in 2 patients.

We studied clinical effects of meropenem (MEPM, SM-7338), a newly developed parenteral carbapenem beta-lactam drug, and following results were obtained. The patients were administered with 16-20 mg/kg of MEPM every 8 hours using 1 hour drip infusion. 1. Clinical effects of MEPM were studied in 10 children with various infectious diseases: 1 with acute bronchitis, and 2 each with acute tonsillitis, acute bronchopneumonia, acute pneumonia, acute urinary infection, and 1 with pertussis pneumonia. The case of pertussis pneumonia later developed bronchiolitis obliterans, hence a steroid and gamma-globulin were used. This case was excluded from the clinical evaluation. The efficacy rate was 100% (9/9), and the bacteriological eradication rate was 100% (6/6). 2. No side effects were noted. Clinical laboratory test values were investigated in 10 patients. There was a case of abnormal laboratory test findings with mild elevations of liver functions such as GOT, GPT, and gamma-GTP. These abnormalities disappeared in 1 week after the end of therapy.

A total of 22 patients with acute pediatric infections was treated with rokitamycin (TMS-19-Q, RKM) dry syrup, a new macrolide antibiotic developed by Toyo Jozo Co., Ltd., Ohhito, Japan, to investigate its clinical efficacy. 1. A girl of an age 4 years 2 months (weighing 16.5 kg) was administered orally 10 mg/kg of RKM, and a boy of an age 8 years 7 months (weighing 24.5 kg), 15 mg/kg, and blood concentrations of RKM in these subjects were measured to investigate its absorption and excretion. Blood concentrations of the drug reached a peak of 0.84 microgram/ml in an hour after the administration in the girl, 0.72 microgram/ml in 30 minutes in the boy, with T1/2 of 0.86 and 1.82 hours, respectively. Their 6-hour cumulative urinary recovery rates were 2.79 and 2.13%, respectively. 2. A total of 20 patients was treated with RKM dry syrup. These patients included 3 with acute pharyngitis, one with acute tonsillitis, 4 with hemolytic streptococcal infections, 7 with acute bronchitis, 2 with pneumonia, another 2 with pertussis, and one with Campylobacter enteritis. The treatment was effective in 18 of them with a clinical efficacy of 90.0%. 3. Bacteriological responses to RKM dry syrup were as follows: eradication of pathogens in 5, pathogens decreased in 3, and no changes were observed in 3 of 12 patients from whom pathogens had been isolated prior to the treatment, thus the eradication rate was 45.5% with the exception of 1 patient whose bacteriological response was unknown.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

BRL 25000 granules, a formulation consisting of amoxicillin (AMPC) and clavulanic acid (CVA), was evaluated in the field of pediatrics. In a pharmacokinetic study, serum concentrations were determined in a patient after oral administration of BRL 25000 granules in the non-fasting state at a dose of 11.76 mg/kg. The serum levels of amoxicillin (AMPC) and clavulanic acid (CVA) 1 hour after administration were 7.76 micrograms/ml and 6.64 micrograms/ml, with biological half-lives of 0.86 hour and 0.88 hour respectively. The serum concentration profile at a dose of 31.58 mg/kg showed almost the same tendency as at 11.76 mg/kg, although the peak level and biological half-life of the serum concentrations were not obtained. These serum levels and their peak levels were considered reasonable compared with those obtained in adults at similar dose levels. In clinical studies, 34 patients were evaluated including 8 patients with acute pharyngitis or acute tonsillitis, 1 patient with acute bronchitis, 1 patient with bronchopneumonia, 23 patients with scarlet fever and 1 patient with pertussis. BRL 25000 granules were administered orally 3-4 times per day for 4-8 days to 2 patients at doses of 20 approximately less than 30 mg/kg/day, to 18 patients at doses of 30 approximately less than 40 mg/kg/day, to 11 patients at doses of 40 less than approximately 50 mg/kg/day, and to 3 patients at doses of 50-60 mg/kg/day. The clinical response was assessed excellent in 13 cases and good in 21 cases giving an overall clinical efficacy rate of 100% (34/34). The causative organisms were isolated in 17 cases and included 12 strains of Streptococcus group A, 2 S. pneumoniae, 3 H. influenzae and 1 H. parainfluenzae.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Ceftazidime (CAZ), developed by Glaxo U.K., was used in pediatric patients with acute infections, and the following results were obtained. The mean blood concentrations of CAZ in 2 children were 142, 70.3, 46.9, 35.7, 16.2, 5.82 and 2.36 micrograms/ml at 5, 15, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours, respectively, after start of 5 minutes' intravenous injection of 20 mg/kg, with the half-life of 1.25 hours. CAZ was administered to 19 pediatric patients with acute infections. Out of them, 15 patients, i.e., 3 with acute tonsillitis, 1 with acute bronchitis, 5 with bronchopneumonia, 2 with pertussis accompanying pneumonia, 2 with Salmonella enteritis, 1 with impetigo staphylogenes and 1 with subdural abscess, were adopted for the evaluation, and the other 4 were excluded from the evaluation because of inadequate indications. The efficacy rate in these 15 cases was 93.3%. The doses used in 14 out of the evaluated 15 cases ranged from 31 to 50 mg/kg/day, the frequency of dosing was twice daily in 8 cases and 3 times daily in 7 cases. One shot intravenous injection was used in 6 cases, intravenous drip infusion in 8, and combination of these, in 1 case. The duration of treatment was 2 days in 3 cases, 3 days in 3, 4 days in 4, and 5 days in 3 cases. Patients with severe infections were generally given large doses for long-term. No clinical adverse event was observed in any case. In laboratory examinations, slight elevation of S-GPT alone was observed in 1 case. From the above results, CAZ was considered to be a highly useful drug in the field of pediatrics.
