The new antibiotic, sulbactam/ampicillin (SBT/ABPC) was administered to 25 children. The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. In 5 cases of children administered with SBT/ABPC (30 mg/kg) by intravenous drip infusion for 30 minutes, the mean values of T 1/2 (beta) were 0.94 hour (SBT) and 0.86 hour (ABPC) and the mean 6.5 hour urinary excretion rates were 64.2% and 42.9%, respectively. 2. The antibiotic was administered to a total of 25 patients with bronchopneumonia, pneumonia, bronchitis, cervical lymphadenitis, tonsillitis, streptococcal infection, urinary tract infection, felon, periappendicular abscess, sepsis or purulent meningitis. Response to the treatment were excellent in 17 cases, good in 7, fair in 1, and poor in none. The efficacy rate was 96%. From our results, this drug appears to be particularly effective against bronchopneumonia, bronchitis and urinary tract infection. 3. Eruption occurred in 1 of 25 patients and elevation of eosinophil, GOT/GPT, platelet in 3 and descent of WBC in 1 were observed, but these were transient. These results showed that SBT/ABPC is a drug which can be safely used in the pediatric field as well as for adults.

Sulbactam/ampicillin (SBT/ABPC) was given intravenously to 20 children with the following acute bacterial infections; 14 cases of pneumonia, 2 cases of purulent cervical lymphadenitis and 1 case each of bronchitis, pyothorax, cellulitis, and purulent meningitis. Good clinical responses were obtained in 18 out of 20 patients, and bacteriologically, all of the 14 isolated strains were eradicated. No side effect was observed except 2 cases of eosinophilia, and 1 case each of loose stool and elevated thrombocyte. From the above clinical results, it is apparent that SBT/ABPC is a useful antibiotic for the treatment of pediatric patients with various kinds of bacterial infections.

Pharmacokinetic and clinical studies of ceftizoxime (CZX) were performed in infants given intravenously. The obtained results are summarized as follows. 1. Serum concentrations of CZX in 2 and 3 day-old mature infants given 20 mg/kg by one shot intravenous injection peaked at 49.0 and 57.9 micrograms/ml in 1 hour and decreased to 14.4 and 24.9 micrograms/ml in 8 hours after dosing, respectively. Half-lives were 3.9 and 5.6 hours, respectively. In 5 day-old or older mature infants, peak serum levels ranged from 20.9 to 38.0 micrograms/ml at 1 hour after the injection. Levels of CZX at 8 hours after injection were 1.31 to 7.32 micrograms/ml. Half-lives were 1.6-3.0 hours in all the infants except one. 2. In a 3 day-old premature infant given the same dose by a bolus intravenous injection, the serum level peaked at 45.7 micrograms/ml in 1 hour after the injection. The level at 8 hours after injection was 15.7 micrograms/ml. The half-life was 4.2 hours. In 5-15 day-old premature infants, half-lives were 2.3-3.1 hours in all the infants except one. 3. Serum concentrations of CZX in 1 and 2 day-old infants given 20 mg/kg by intravenous drip infusion peaked at 49.4 to 115.0 micrograms/ml in 1 hour after dosing. Half-lives were rather long, 4.0 and 5.1 hours, in the 2 infants. 4. Peak serum levels and half-lives tended to be lower and shorter in 5 day-old or older ones than in the 3 day-old or younger infants. 5. No changes in the serum concentration were observed even after dosing with 20 mg/kg of continuous one shot intravenous injection. 6. Urinary recovery rates during the first 8 hours (one is 6 hours, two is 9 hours) after 20 mg/kg intravenous bolus injection of CZX tended to be lower in 3 day-old or younger infants than in 5 day-old or older infants. 7. Eleven infants with various bacterial infections were given CZX by intravenous bolus injection or drip infusion. Dosage of CZX used in the present study were 36-148 mg/kg/day in 2-3 divided doses. Duration of treatment ranged from 3 to 12 days. Clinical efficacy of CZX was excellent or good in all the infants with acute bronchitis, acute pneumonia, suspected sepsis infected in uterine, acute otitis media, cellulitis, meningitis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli, acute urinary tract infection and periproctic abscess except 1 case of acute bronchitis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The transfer to cerebrospinal fluid of a new oxacephem antibiotic flomoxef (FMOX, 6315-S) and its clinical efficacy against bacterial infections were investigated. 1. In 3 cases of purulent meningitis, cerebrospinal fluid concentrations of FMOX after one shot intravenous injection of 100 mg/kg during the acute stage of infections were 5.12-6.32 micrograms/ml and ratios of FMOX in cerebrospinal fluid in serum were about 5%. During the recovery stage, cerebrospinal fluid concentrations were about 3.8 micrograms/ml and cerebrospinal fluid/serum ratios were about 3.5%. 2. In 1 case of purulent meningitis, the treatment with FMOX was clinically effective but this case was classified as "unevaluable" because other drug was used concomitantly. FMOX was rated effective in other 2 cases of purulent meningitis. Of 9 cases of pneumonia, FMOX was rated very effective in 8 cases and it was rated only effective in the other. Of 4 cases of bronchitis, the drug was rated very effective in 3 cases and only effective in the other. FMOX was rated very effective against 2 cases of tonsillitis, also. 3. As side effects, thrombocytosis was observed in 3 of 20 cases examined. All cases, however, were deemed unrelated to the FMOX treatment and the side effect was only transient as are often found in courses of recovery from infections.

Clinical studies were performed on cefuzonam (L-105, CZON), a new cephem antibiotic, as follows. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum concentrations. CSF and serum concentrations of CZON were measured in 1 case of septic arthritis without meningitis. One hour after 50 mg/kg intravenous bolus injection, the CSF and serum concentrations were 0.10 and 18.1 micrograms/ml, respectively, and CSF to serum concentration ratio was 0.55%. Clinical efficacy CZON was administered to 15 patients in doses ranging 54.5 approximately 212.4 mg/kg/day (94.1 mg/kg/day on average) t.i.d. or q.i.d. for 4 approximately 12 days (6.5 days on average). Of those patients, 9 were with pneumonia, one each was with bronchitis, with tonsillitis, with septic arthritis, with septicemia, with purulent meningitis and with urinary tract infection. The overall efficacy rate was 100%, i.e., efficacy was excellent in 12, good in 3. Bacteriological efficacy was excellent, i.e., 8 of 8 strains were eradicated. Side effects were observed in 2 cases, i.e., one case with loose stool and another with eruption. Laboratory abnormalities to the drug were not observed during the treatment. The above results suggested that CZON would be a useful antibiotic for treating pediatric bacterial infections.

Studies were carried out on the penetration of cefuzonam (L-105, CZON), a new synthetic cephalosporin antibiotic, into cerebrospinal fluid, and on the clinical efficacy against bacterial infections. The results are summarized as follows: Concentrations of CZON in cerebrospinal fluid at 1 hour after intravenous administration of 100 mg/kg in cases of furunculosis of the external canal, encephalitis and mumps meningitis were 0.56 micrograms/ml, 1.44 micrograms/ml and 0.33 micrograms/ml, respectively. Concentrations of CZON in cerebrospinal fluid at 1 hour after intravenous administration of 100 mg/kg in 3 cases of purulent meningitis were 2.80-6.40 micrograms/ml at the acute stage and 0.56-1.45 micrograms/ml even at the recovering stage. Sensitivities of clinically isolated strains to CZON were determined and expressed as MIC. MICs of CZON on Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis and Klebsiella pneumoniae were similar to MIC's of cefmenoxime (CMX), and lower than those of cefoperazone (CPZ), cefmetazole (CMZ), cefatiam (CTM) and Cefazolin (CEZ). The MIC of CZON on Staphylococcus aureus was similar to those of CEZ, CMZ and CTM, and lower than those of CMX and CPZ. Clinical responses of CZON were good in 2 cases of purulent meningitis, good in 2 cases of pyothorax, excellent in 1 case of septicemia, excellent in 3 cases of urinary tract infections, excellent in 7 cases and good in 3 cases out of 10 cases of pneumonia. Clinical responses of other diseases were excellent in 4 cases of bronchitis, good in 1 case of furunculosis of the external canal, excellent in 1 case of tonsillitis. No side effects nor abnormal laboratory findings were observed except 2 cases of mild diarrhea out of 24 cases.

Pasteurella ureae is uncommonly isolated from patients and rarely causes disease. The case of a patient with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis caused by P. ureae is described and contrasted with other reported cases of P. ureae colonization and infection. Respiratory colonization has been described in older patients, predominantly men, with underlying lung disease consisting principally of bronchitis, bronchiectasis, and tumors. Only 11 patients (including the present patient) have been reported to have illness with P. ureae. Seven had meningitis, two had pneumonia, and one had hepatitis. Skull fracture, alcoholism, and liver disease are common antecedents of P. ureae infection.

The therapeutic effects of cefminox (CMNX, MT-141), a new synthetic cephalosporin antibiotic, were examined in the treatment of various pediatric infections. Patients treated were infants and children ranging from 12 days after birth to 12 years old suffering from bronchopneumonia in 10 cases, urinary tract infection in 6 cases, pharyngitis in 2 cases, cervical lymphadenitis in 2 cases, suppurative meningitis, cervical abscess, mastoiditis, peritonitis, bronchitis in 1 case each, total of 25 cases. As regards method of administration, CMNX from a vial was dissolved in physiological saline or distilled water for injection, and the solution was administered by 3 to 5 minutes one shot intravenous injection (15 cases), or CMNX was diluted with large volume parenteral product and administered by 30 to 60 minutes drip infusion (10 cases). The dosage of the drug was 21.3 to 165.5 mg/kg/day. The administration was continued for 3 to 13 days except 1 case. As regards clinical efficacy, good or excellent results were obtained in all cases except 3 cases, 1 case was urinary tract infection with cerebral palsy and vesicoureteral reflux, and 1 case was bronchopneumonia with Down syndrome and endocardial cushion defect, the other was suppurative meningitis. Total effective rate was 88%. No clinical side effects nor abnormal laboratory findings obviously attributable to CMNX were observed.

Aztreonam (AZT) was evaluated for its safety, clinical efficacy and pharmacokinetics in children. AZT was effective in all the 16 children with Gram-negative bacterial infections. The diagnoses included acute bronchitis and pneumonia (11), UTI (2), UTI with bacteremia (1), purulent meningitis (1) and acute mucositis (1). The etiologic agents were H. influenzae (10), B. catarrhalis (1), N. meningitidis group C (1), E. coli (3) and P. aeruginosa (2). The serum half-life was approximately 1.2 hours after intravenous bolus injection. Penetration into the inflamed cerebrospinal fluid was good not only in acute purulent meningitis but also in viral meningitis. From the present study, AZT is a safe and effective antibiotic when used in children with Gram-negative bacterial infections.
