Cefuzonam (CZON) was used to treat severe infections in 151 patients with hematopoietic disorders, and its efficacy and safety were assessed. The drug was given in doses of 2.0 to 6.0 g a day, divided into 2 or 3, intravenously by injection or infusion. The clinical effects were excellent in 34 cases, good in 40 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 57 cases. Therefore, the results were excellent or good in 54.4% of the patients treated. The efficacy rates were 43.8 and 35.9% for groups of patients whose neutrophil counts were 500/microliters or less and 100/microliters or less, respectively. It was excellent or good in 70.6% of patients in whom causative agents were identified, and in 66.7 and 80.0% of patients infected with Gram-negative and -positive bacilli, respectively. The efficacy rate for patients infected with unidentified agents was 52.1%. The rate for patients who had received other antibiotics previously was 41.5%. The rate for patients having received only one antibiotic for the preceding treatment was 50.0%. Six (3.9%) of the treated patients experienced adverse effects including changes in laboratory test results observed in 4.
