Neutropenic patients with underlying hematologic (usually malignant) diseases were randomized to receive either 2 g ceftriaxone once daily +0.5 g amikacin or 2 g ceftazidime twice daily +0.5 g amikacin b.i.d. when fever was higher than 38 degrees C and granulocyte counts less than 0.5 x 10(9)/l. 25 patients were included in each treatment group. Successful outcome of treatment was observed in 28 (13/15) and in an additional 5 (2/3) patients after modification of the therapy. Tolerability was excellent in both groups.
