Abstract

The possible nephrotoxity of cephalothin and the antibiotic combinations cephalotin-gentamicin and cephalothin-tobramycin was investigated in standardized animal experiments. Toxicity parameters were blood-urea concentration, the urinary enzymes GOT, LDH, MDH and the cell excretion rate, supplemented by histological investigations of the kidneys. Compared with other cephalosporine derivates, the antibiotic cephalothin in a toxic threshold-dose of 3000 mg/kg/day proved to be realtively well tolerated by the kidneys. On comparison with the respective monotherapy, the renal tolerance for cephalothin-aminoglycoside combinations was reduced. The clinical value of these findings is discussed.
