[Concentrations of cefradine in renal tissue (author's transl)].
After a single bolus injection of two grams of cefradine the concentrations of antibiotic in serum and renal tissues of 21 patients were estimated. After 30 minutes the mean serum concentrations were 159 microgram/ml, after 60 mins 62 microgram/ml and after 95 mins 22 microgram/ml. The tissue concentrations in normal renal tissue (group I) after 30 minutes were 348 microgram/ml and with tissue of chronically inflamed kidneys (group II) 118 microgram/ml in the same period. After 90 minutes the concentrations of group I were 214 microgram/g, and in group II 28 microgram/g, e.g. 8 times lower. The estimated cefradine concentrations in serum and in normal and impaired renal tissue within the time interval of 10 to 90 minutes are above the minimal inhibition concentrations for most cefradine sensitive pathogens.
