Teicoplanin pharmacokinetics in critically ill paediatric patients.
Twenty-one critically ill children aged between 7 days and 12 years were treated with teicoplanin (three loading dosages of 10 mg/kg at 12 h intervals, followed by a maintenance dosage of 10 mg/kg/day). Serum teicoplanin concentrations were monitored by HPLC. Mean concentrations in plasma 30 min after drug administration were 20 +/- 16.1 mg/L. The volume of distribution was 0.30 L/kg and the te...
متن کاملClinical Pharmacology of Teicoplanin in Neonates: Effects and Pharmacokinetics
Teicoplanin is a glycoside antibiotic which consists of five closely related glycopeptide antibiotics with similar antibacterial properties to vancomycin that were first isolated in 1976. Teicoplanin is active against many gram-positive anaerobe microorganisms and is particularly potent against clostridium species. It is also active against most Listeria, enterococci and staphylococci including...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of a single dose of teicoplanin in burn patients.
Patients with severe burns are susceptible to infection with Gram-positive organisms including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and often require higher antibiotic dosages compared with other patients. This study examined the pharmacokinetics of a single iv dose of teicoplanin (12 mg/kg) in 15 adults and five children with severe burns. Adults were aged 21-82 years with a median tot...
متن کاملPopulation pharmacokinetics of teicoplanin in children.
Teicoplanin is frequently administered to treat Gram-positive infections in pediatric patients. However, not enough is known about the pharmacokinetics (PK) of teicoplanin in children to justify the optimal dosing regimen. The aim of this study was to determine the population PK of teicoplanin in children and evaluate the current dosage regimens. A PK hospital-based study was conducted. Current...
متن کاملTeicoplanin pharmacokinetics during albumin dialysis
Teicoplanin (TP) pharmacokinetics was assessed in a critically ill patient during albumin dialysis (AD), which was performed with the molecular adsorbent recirculating system. After a 1200-mg loading dose (24 mg/kg), doses of 1200 and 1000 mg (20 mg/kg) on day 2 and 3, respectively, were administered during two cycles of AD. The mean TP peak and trough concentrations amounted to 99.3 and 21.4 µ...
