The pharmacokinetics of cefroxadine in healthy human volunteers was studied in plasma and urine, after an infusion administration of 1 g of this drug for 0.5 h. Blood and urine samples were microbiologically quantified by diffusion on solid gelose using Bacillus Subtilis ATCC 6633 as the test organism. Plasma and urine profiles were fitted to a reduced two-compartment model not having inactivating biotransformation as a route of elimination. The parameters of distribution for this model show a rapid disposition (t1/2 alpha = 0.28 h) and an average volume of the central compartment of 0.15 +/- 0.04 l/kg (range 0.20-0.09). The dominant terminal half-life (beta-phase) was 1.17 +/- 0.26 h (range 0.90-1.67). The total body volume 0.41 +/- 0.09 l/kg (range 0.30-0.52) indicates that there is no diffusion of the antibiotic into intracellular fluids of poorly perfused tissues due to its high elimination rate.
