[Hemorrhagic syndrome during high-dose ampicillin treatment].

Abstract
In high doses, the beta-lactams--particularly cephalosporins--can cause bleeding from impairment of prothrombin formation. We report a case of hemorrhagic syndrome in a 63-year-old woman during therapy with high doses of ampicillin for Listeria monocytogenes meningitis.
