  • Title: [Cefmenoxime diffusion into cerebrospinal fluid during human purulent meningitis].
    Author: Stahl JP, Croize J, Bru JP, Pegourie B, Blanc-Jouvan F, Bryskier A, Micoud M.
    Journal: Pathol Biol (Paris); 1985 May; 33(5):365-7. PubMed ID: 3897967.
    Abstract:
    We treated 10 patients with bacterial meningitis by 150 mg/kg/day cefmenoxime divided into six intravenous infusions. CSF samples were taken one hour after an IV on the second and fifth days. CSF cefmenoxime determined by microbiologic assay was 8.3 mg/l on days 2 and 5. Every patient recovered without sequelae. In our opinion, these results may support use of cefmenoxime in bacterial meningitis.
