    Author: Shinozaki T, Nonaka C, Togasaki K.
    Journal: Jpn J Antibiot; 1989 Aug; 42(8):1837-44. PubMed ID: 2810746.
    Abstract:
    Cefteram pivoxil (CFTM-PI) was administered to 37 patients with acute febrile upper or lower respiratory infections and 3 patients with urinary tract infections at 10 mg/kg/day divided into 3 portions. Good clinical effects were observed in all the cases. As for the bacteriological effect, the evaluable 24 strains (60.0%) were eradicated among 43 strains identified in 37 cases with the treatment with CFTM-PI. Only 2 strains were eradicated among 9 strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Among 3 patients with urinary tract infections with Escherichia coli, 2 strains were eradicated from urine after the administration of CFTM-PI. Four cases showed mild diarrhea among 40 cases. It was not clear whether the diarrhea was due to the administration of CFTM-PI.
