Abstract
Cefepime toxicity is characterized by altered mental status, confusion, and decreased responsiveness. We describe a 14-year-old girl who developed acute encephalopathy associated with supratherapeutic cefepime concentrations in the setting of acute renal failure. The authors were unable to identify any previous reports of this occurrence in a child.Entities:
