title: Influence of plasma exchange pheresis on plasma elimination of ceftriaxone.
abstract: The plasma elimination rates of serial 2-g intravenous injections of ceftriaxone were studied in a patient who also was treated with therapeutic plasma exchange pheresis. Plasmapheresis had negligible influence on the total clearance of ceftriaxone.
