    Abstract:
    The distribution of cefuzonam (CZON, L-105) into the uterus and uterine adnexa was investigated and the usefulness and the safety of CZON in obstetric and gynecological infections were studied. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Following one shot intravenous injection of CZON 1 g, a good distribution of the drug into tissues of uterus and uterine adnexa was observed, with Cmax values of 15.7-33.9 micrograms/g, Tmax of 7.3-34.0 minutes and AUC values of 18.7-35.3 micrograms X hr/g. 2. In all of the 30 cases of obstetric and gynecological infections treated, CZON was evaluated effective. 3. Bacteriologically, 93.9% of total bacteria that had been isolated were eliminated by the administration of the drug. 4. Against all the strains of bacteria isolated before the treatment and replaced bacteria, MIC50, MIC80 and MIC90 of CZON were 0.20 micrograms/ml, 12.5 micrograms/ml and 25 micrograms/ml, respectively, showing low values. 5. Subjective and objective findings and clinical laboratory test values during and after the trial showed no side effects associated with CZON.
