Abstract

The bile levels of cefoxitin and cefamandole were studied in 75 patients. The two antibiotics were shown to be present at high concentration and to undergo a rapid metabolization. It is concluded that they represent the antibiotics of choice in the prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of biliary tract infections.
