Pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime in newborn infants.
Doses of 50 mg of ceftazidime per kg were administered intravenously to 29 newborn infants every 8 or 12 h for 3 to 5 days. Mean peak concentrations in plasma ranged from 102 to 124 micrograms/ml. Mean elimination half-life values ranged from 2.9 to 6.7 h and varied inversely with gestational age and plasma clearances. Peak and trough plasma bactericidal titers against an Escherichia coli and a...
متن کاملRanitidine pharmacokinetics in newborn infants.
Few data are available for ranitidine pharmacokinetics in the first few days of life. Twenty seven newborn infants were treated with intravenous ranitidine because they were vomiting blood, although they had a negative Apt's test. Each infant provided two blood samples at randomly selected times 30-360 minutes after a 2.4 mg/kg intravenous bolus of ranitidine. A single exponential equation for ...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of cefotaxime in newborn infants.
The pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime were determined in newborn infants who were 1 to 7 days of age. Mean peak serum concentrations of 116 and 132 micrograms/ml were observed at completion of a 10-min intravenous infusion of 50 mg of cefotaxime per kg in low and average birth weight infants, respectively. The mean elimination half-lives were 4.6 and 3.4 h and rates of clearance from serum were 23...
متن کاملClinical Pharmacology of Ceftazidime in Neonates: Effects and Pharmacokinetics
Ceftazidime is a valuable third-generation bactericidal cephalosporin. Ceftazidime inhibits the biosynthesis of bacterial cell peptidoglycan, causing inhibition of bacterial growth or cell lyses and death. Common nosocomial gram-negative organisms susceptible to ceftazidime include Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Neisseria, Moraxella catarrhalis, Proteus mirabil...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics and safety of cefamandole in newborn infants.
Cefamandole, a new parenteral cephalosporin antibiotic, was administered to 23 newborn infants with pustular skin infection due to Staphylococcus aureus for an average duration of 7.5 days. All the patients improved clinically. Elevation of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase and eosinophilia were observed in nine infants each transiently during treatment. There were no abnormalities of ren...
