Tobramycin and gentamicin concentrations in the serum of normal and anephric patients.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The serum half-life of tobramycin was found to be the same as that of gentamicin in patients with similar renal function. The values ranged from 2 hr in normal volunteers to 53.4 hr in anephric patients. Both drugs were readily removed from the serum by the Kiil artificial kidney, with a 70% reduction in serum concentrations during a 12-hr dialysis period.

Comparative nephrotoxicity of gentamicin and tobramycin in rats.
A rat model was utilized to compare the nephrotoxic potential of gentamicin and tobramycin. Gentamicin, 40 mg/kg per day, predictably produced renal failure and morphological evidence of proximal tubular necrosis over 14 days of treatment. An identical dosage of tobramycin was associated with only minimal morphological changes and normal concentrations of serum creatinine and blood urea nitroge...
متن کاملComparison of the distribution of tobramycin and gentamicin in body fluids of dogs.
Tobramycin serum, thoracic lymph, renal lymph, and urine concentrations were measured in mongrel dogs after intravenously administered 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg doses. These were compared with intravenous gentamicin delivered at 5 and 20 mg/kg. Both drugs achieved similar concentrations in serum and thoracic lymph. At 20 mg/kg, tobramycin showed consistently higher renal lymph and urine concentration...
متن کاملVariation in the pharmacokinetics of gentamicin and tobramycin in patients with pleural effusions and hypoalbuminemia.
The pharmacokinetic parameters of gentamicin and tobramycin were evaluated and compared for 260 patients with pleural effusions and 1,049 patients without pleural effusions by chest radiograph. Pharmacokinetic data were collected prospectively and analyzed by using our aminoglycoside data base. Univariate analysis revealed that the patients with pleural effusions demonstrated significantly lowe...

A total of 201 critically ill patients were studied during 267 courses of gentamicin or tobramycin treatment (139 gentamicin courses and 128 tobramycin courses). Of these 267 courses, pharmacokinetic and clinical data were obtained for 240 (120 gentamicin and 120 tobramycin). The data collected for pharmacokinetic analysis included measurements of serial blood and urine levels, urinary excretio...
متن کاملRelationship between rat renal accumulation of gentamicin, tobramycin, and netilmicin and their nephrotoxicities.
Gentamicin, tobramycin, and netilmicin were given to rats in daily doses of either 5 or 20 mg/kg for 30 days to determine the renal accumulation kinetics of the compounds and to correlate steady-state renal parenchymal concentrations with nephrotoxicity. Four rats from each group were sacrificed daily and renal parenchymal tissue concentrations were determined microbiologically. Nephrotoxicity ...
