CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Studies have shown that following intravenous administration of
cefazolin for injection to normal
volunteers, mean serum concentrations peaked at approximately 185
mcg/mL and were approximately 4
mcg/mL at 8 hours for a 1-gram dose.
The serum half-life for cefazolin is approximately 1.8 hours following
intravenous administration.
In a study (using normal volunteers) of constant intravenous infusion
with dosages of 3.5 mg/kg for one
hour (approximately 250 mg) and 1.5 mg/kg the next 2 hours
(approximately 100 mg), cefazolin

produced a steady serum level at the third hour of approximately 28
mcg/mL.
Studies in patients hospitalized with infections indicate that
cefazolin produces mean peak serum levels
approximately equivalent to those seen in normal volunteers.
Bile levels in patients without obstructive biliary disease can reach
or exceed serum levels by up to
five times; however, in patients with obstructive biliary disease,
bile levels of cefazolin are
