Treatment of typhoid fever with cefamandole

Abstract

Cefamandole therapy was evaluated in nine patients with typhoid fever. Six patients, including all five who received the antibiotic by continuous intravenous drip (8.0 g daily), were cured. Dosage schedules resulting in maintenance of antibiotic concentrations in serum high above the MIC seemed to correlate well with treatment success.
