Serum bactericidal activity and killing rate for volunteers receiving imipenem, imipenem plus amikacin, and ceftazidime plus amikacin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Serum bactericidal activity against 20 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied in 10 volunteers after administration of imipenem (25 mg/kg), imipenem (25 mg/kg) plus amikacin (7.5 mg/kg), and ceftazidime (25 mg/kg) plus amikacin (7.5 mg/kg). Eight strains were susceptible and 12 were resistant to ticarcillin. Serum levels were measured microbiologically after 30 and 60 min and were, respe...
متن کاملSerum bactericidal activity of ceftazidime and cefoperazone alone or in combination with amikacin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Sera of volunteers receiving ceftazidime (2 g) or amikacin (500 mg), alone or in combination, or cefoperazone (2, 4, or 6 g) or cefoperazone (2 g) with amikacin (500 mg) were evaluated for bactericidal activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Serum bactericidal activities were similar for ceftazidime and ceftazidime plus amikacin, but were definitely lower for amikacin...
متن کاملComparative study of serum bactericidal activity of cefotaxime alone or in combination with tobramycin.
The objectives of this study were to investigate the bactericidal activity in serum of cefotaxime alone or in combination with tobramycin against clinical strains and to determine the influence of tobramycin on the pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime. The peak bactericidal activity in serum of cefotaxime alone against Klebsiella oxytoca, Enterobacter aerogenes, Serratia marcescens, Pseudomonas cepac...
متن کاملSerum bactericidal activity and postantibiotic effect in serum of patients with urinary tract infection receiving high-dose amikacin.
Ten patients received a 30-min infusion of amikacin (30 mg/kg) on day 1 and 15 mg/kg on day 2. Mean serum creatinine was 1.1 +/- 0.3 (standard deviation) mg/dl before and 1.0 +/- 0.3 mg/dl 3 days after the second infusion. Mean serum amikacin concentrations before, at the end of infusion, and 1, 6, 12, and 24 h after 30 and 15 mg/kg were 0, 157, 79, 31, 16, 5, 5, 85, 51, 19, 12, and 5 mg/liter,...
متن کاملIn Vitro Bactericidal Activity of Encapsulated Amikacin in Liposome
Background and Objectives: The most common problems limiting the medical use of aminoglycosides have been the nephro- and oto-toxicities as well as the increasing bacterial resistance. Encapsulation of drugs into liposomes enhances their efficacy while reducing their toxicities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of free and liposomal amikacin. Material and Metho...
