    Abstract:
    Cefotiam (CTM) was intravenously given to 12 patients with infectious diseases in the field of otorhinolaryngology including 10 cases with chronic suppurative otitis media. Daily doses of CTM were 1 to 4 g. Clinical responses were excellent in 3 patients, good in 5, fair in 1 and poor in 3. The rate of overall clinical effectiveness was 67%. Staphylococcus species were most frequently isolated from the patients and all of them were eradicated by the CTM treatment. No side effects and no abnormal laboratory findings relating to the drug administration were observed.
