    Abstract:
    Human pharmacokinetics and clinical studies of cefminox (CMNX, MT-141) were carried out and the following results were obtained. The concentrations of CMNX transferred to the uterus and its appendages after CMNX 1 g intravenous injection were maintained above 12.5 micrograms/g during first 3 hours or more. The concentrations of CMNX transferred to the pelvic dead space exudate were above 12.5 micrograms/ml during 6 hours or more. Those concentrations were sufficiently effective against the major pathogens (Gram-negative and anaerobic bacteria) demonstrated in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. We administered CMNX to 4 cases with postoperative infections at a dose of 2 g per day (twice a day) for a period of 4-6 days. The clinical effect was excellent in 3, good in 1 case. No side effect was observed.
