  • Title: [Clinical experience on sulbactam/cefoperazone in the pediatric field].
    Author: Honjo T, Watanabe A.
    Journal: Jpn J Antibiot; 1984 Oct; 37(10):1788-92. PubMed ID: 6094858.
    Abstract:
    Approximately 20 mg/kg/day of sulbactam/cefoperazone (SBT/CPZ) was given by one shot intravenous injection to 16 pediatric inpatients with respiratory tract infections (13 cases), urinary tract infection (1 case), skin infection (1 case) or gastrointestinal tract infection (1 case). An excellent efficacy in 6 cases and a good efficacy in 10 cases were observed. Causative organisms were not identified in the respiratory tract infections, even though the efficacy was excellent or good. Side effects were not noticed in particular and SBT/CPZ was judged as safe enough agent. Concentrations of SBT/CPZ in the spinal fluid were determined in 3 patients. Their low concentrations suggested the poor transfer into the spinal fluid. Finally, SBT/CPZ is a very useful agent since it is effective also against resistant organisms which produce penicillinase-type beta-lactamases.
