title: Pharmacokinetic profile of cefotetan in different clinical conditions.
abstract: The pharmacokinetic profile of cefotetan was studied in a group of hospitalized patients. The absorption of the molecule (after a single dose of 2 g/i.m.) was good and the drug was found to diffuse satisfactorily in the lungs, prostatic tissue, kidney and in the female genitalia.
