Pharmacokinetics of ampicillin and sulbactam in pediatric patients.
Intravenous ampicillin-sulbactam is effective in the treatment of various infections in adults, but little is known about the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ampicillin-sulbactam in children. The objective of this study was to determine the PK of ampicillin and sulbactam in pediatric patients with intra-abdominal infection, skin and/or skin structure infection, or periorbital-preseptal and facial cell...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of ampicillin-sulbactam in healthy elderly and young volunteers.
The pharmacokinetics of ampicillin-sulbactam in elderly subjects (65 to 85 years; group 3, n = 8), compared with those in middle-aged (41 to 64 years; group 2, n = 8) and younger (20 to 40 years; group 1, n = 8) subjects, were investigated. A single 2-g dose of ampicillin combined with 1 g of sulbactam in 60 ml of intravenous solution was administered to each subject over a 30-min period. Blood...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of ampicillin and sulbactam in patients undergoing heart surgery.
The pharmacokinetics of ampicillin and sulbactam, a new beta-lactamase inhibitor, were investigated in 16 patients undergoing prosthetic cardiac valve insertion. The combination of 2 g of ampicillin and 1 g of sulbactam was administered as perioperative prophylaxis intravenously over 3 to 6 days. Several serum pharmacokinetic parameters were similar for the two drugs after three intravenous dos...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of ampicillin/sulbactam in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury undergoing extended dialysis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The fixed antibacterial combination of ampicillin and sulbactam is frequently used for various infections. Intact kidneys eliminate approximately 71% of ampicillin and 78% of sulbactam. Patients on thrice-weekly low-flux hemodialysis exhibit an ampicillin t(1/2) of 2.3 hours on and 17.4 hours off dialysis. Despite its frequent use in intensive care units, there are no ...
متن کاملComparative pharmacokinetics of an ampicillin/sulbactam combination administered intramuscularly in lactating sheep and goats.
The pharmacokinetic behaviour of an ampicillin/sulbactam (2:1) combination was studied after intramuscular administration of a single dose (20 mg/kg body weight: 13.33 mg/kg of ampicillin and 6.67 mg/kg of sulbactam) to six sheep and six goats. The objective was to determine whether there were differences between sheep and goats in the disposition profiles of ampicillin and sulbactam. The dispo...
