The pharmacokinetics of clofoctol [(tetramethyl-1,1,3,3,butyl)-4-(dichloro-2,4-benzyl)-2-hydroxy-1-benzene ] was investigated in six healthy newborns and compared with the kinetic parameters of the drug in six healthy adults. The concentration of the drug in plasma was measured by means of an original sensitive
