title: Transmammary passage of cefoxitin: additional results.
abstract: It has been shown previously that cefoxitin was not detectable in the milk following an intramuscular injection of 1 Gm to mothers. In the present study, using a more sensitive HPLC method, we have shown in five women that low concentrations of cefoxitin (0.25 to 0.65 micrograms/ml) are measured in the milk after the intramuscular injection of 2 Gm.
