Pharmacokinetics of cefotetan in patients with end-stage renal failure on maintenance dialysis
1986
: The pharmacokinetics of a single intravenous dose of cefotetan were studied in 17 volunteer patients with end-stage renal failure, requiring intermittent haemodialysis in 12 cases or undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis in 5 cases. Between haemodialysis the mean plasma elimination half life was 20.4 h (S.E.M. +/- 2.1). This decreased to 7.5 h (S.E.M. +/- 0.6) during haemodialysis. In patients treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis the mean plasma elimination half life was 15.5 h (S.E.M. +/- 1.9). Small amounts of cefotetan (5-9% of the administered dose) were recovered in the peritoneal dialysates removed over the 24 h following the dose.
