ABSTRACT
An open multicentre trial to study the efficacy and safety of ceftazidime in elderly patients has been conducted in four geriatric units on 135 subjects suffering from urinary-tract or respiratory-tract infections. Sixty-two patients were cured (45.9%), and 60 improved (44.4%). Of the evaluable cases bacteriological eradication was achieved in 91.3%. No adverse events were recorded.
