Collaborative Pharmacokinetic–Pharmacodynamic Research for Optimization of Antimicrobial Therapy
The individualization of antimicrobial therapy has long been of major interest to infectious disease physicians [1]. Individualization of dosage regimens includes consideration of the patient’s demographics, disease conditions, and pathogenic fact o r s ( e . g . m i c ro b e s a n d t h e i r m i n i m u m i n h i b i t o r y concentration [MIC] against antimicrobials) to ensure efficacy and a...
متن کاملAnimal models in the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic evaluation of antimicrobial agents.
Animal infection models in the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) evaluation of antimicrobial therapy serve an important role in preclinical assessments of new antibiotics, dosing optimization for those that are clinically approved, and setting or confirming susceptibility breakpoints. The goal of animal model studies is to mimic the infectious diseases seen in humans to allow for robust P...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic issues for antimicrobial therapy in patients with cancer.
In patients battling cancer, many aspects of antimicrobial treatment become more complex, and standard antimicrobial regimens may be inadequate. Various pathophysiological changes in critically ill patients with cancer significantly affect the pharmacokinetics (PK) of antimicrobials. In an unacceptably high percentage of these patients, variability of relevant PK parameters results in inadequat...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships of antimicrobial drugs used in veterinary medicine.
The rise in incidence of antimicrobial resistance, consumer demands and improved understanding of antimicrobial action has encouraged international agencies to review the use of antimicrobial drugs. More detailed understanding of relationships between the pharmacokinetics (PK) of antimicrobial drugs in target animal species and their action on target pathogens [pharmacodynamics (PD)] has led to...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Requirements for Antibiotic Therapy of Experimental Endocarditis
Bacterial endocarditis is a deep, difficult-to-cure infection. Although most organisms are highly susceptible to many antibiotics, therapy must be maintained for weeks in order to eradicate the infection. Moreover, recent clinical observations with teicoplanin have reemphasized that treatment failure can occur, even with very susceptible organisms, after conventional durations of therapy (35). ...
