[The pharmacokinetics of cephalothin during the late stage of pregnancy and in the course of labour (author's transl)].
Using an open one- and two-compartment model, the authors studied the kinetics of cephalothin during pregnancy and in the course of labour as well as in a group of non-pregnant women. They found that the parenteral application of cephalothin leads to therapeutic levels in the serum, tissues and urine also during pregnancy and in the course of labour. The bearing of pregnancy and labour on the kinetics of cephalothin is but insignificant; consequently, no modification of the pharmacotherapy will be necessary.
