Doxycycline in serum and bronchial secretions.
The concentration of doxycycline hydrochloride was measured in serum and bronchial secretions in five patients with chronic bronchitis receiving doxycycline orally in normal therapeutic dosage for seven days (200 mg day 1, 100 mg days 2 to 7). After the loading dose of 200 mg, serum concentrations ranged between 5-40 and 3-45 mug/ml (mean 4-33 mug/ml) at 3 hours, declining to between 2-28 and 1...
متن کاملPenetration of enoxacin into bronchial secretions.
Enoxacin is a potent quinolone derivative with marked activity against gram-negative bacteria and staphylococci. The oral preparation has a potential role in treatment of gram-negative-bacterial lower respiratory infections if found to give adequate bronchial (sputum) concentrations. A study was done to determine the concomitant serum and bronchial concentrations of oral enoxacin after dosing w...
متن کاملGlucose in bronchial aspirates increases the risk of respiratory MRSA in intubated patients.
BACKGROUND The risk of nosocomial infection is increased in critically ill patients by stress hyperglycaemia. Glucose is not normally detectable in airway secretions but appears as blood glucose levels exceed 6.7-9.7 mmol/l. We hypothesise that the presence of glucose in airway secretions in these patients predisposes to respiratory infection. METHODS An association between glucose in bronchi...

متن کامل5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B in bronchial secretions.
The penetration into and clearance from bronchial secretions of 5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B were studied in a dog model. After a single intravenous dose of 35 mg/kg, 5-fluorocytosine intrabronchial concentrations were greater than the minimal inhibitory concentration for 80 to 90% of Candida species. These inhibitory concentrations persisted up to 3 h. In contrast, amphotericin B in int...
