Abstract

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDC) administration and bile refeeding on biliary excretion of cefotiam (CTM) were studied in eight patients with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) for obstructive jaundice.
Peak concentration of CTM in the bile and biliary output of CTM were significantly increased by UDC administration, and slightly increased by bile refeeding. There was a significant correlationship between CTM and bile acid in biliary output (p<0.01).
It is suggested that UDC administration is useful in preventing biliary infection in PTBD patients, and that UDC is one of the important factors affecting biliary excretion of CTM.
