Abstract |
Ceftazidime proved particularly effective in the treatment of acute respiratory tract infections arising in the immediate post-operative period, affording complete clinical cures in 88.8% of cases and a substantial improvement in the pathological picture in the other 11.2% of cases treated. The authors also draw attention to the excellent tolerance of the antibiotic, as evaluated on the basis of liver and kidney function and blood chemistry parameters and the total absence of adverse reactions.
