The mechanism of cephalosporin‐induced hypoprothrombinemia has been investigated in hospitalized patients, with respect to cephalosporin structure, vitamin K metabolism, and vitamin K status. Cephalosporins containing side chains of N‐methylthiotetrazole (latamoxef, cefmenoxime, cefoperazone, cefotetan, cefamandole) or methyl‐thiadiazole (cefazolin) all caused the transient plasma appearance of vitamin K1 2,3‐epoxide in response to a 10‐mg intravenous dose of vitamin K1, whereas two… Expand
