The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of vancomycin.
Vancomycin is one of only a few antibiotics available to treat patients infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species. Therefore, understanding the clinical implications of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of vancomycin is a necessity for clinicians. Vancomycin is a concentration-independent antib...
متن کاملUse of vancomycin pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic properties in the treatment of MRSA infections.
Vancomycin is a commonly used antimicrobial in patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. Increasing vancomycin MIC values in MRSA clinical isolates makes the optimization of vancomycin dosing pivotal to its continued use. Unfortunately, limited data exist regarding the optimal pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) goal to improve bacterial killing and clinic...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of meropenem.
Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of antibiotics are important in determining effective dosing regimens. Although minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) data reflect microbial susceptibility to an antibiotic, they do not provide dosing information. The integration of pharmacokinetic and microbiological data, however, can be used to design rational dosing strategies. Meropenem is a br...

boron nitride semiconducting zigzag swcnt, $b_{cb}$$n_{cn}$$c_{1-cb-cn}$, as a potential candidate for making nanoelectronic devices was examined. in contrast to the previous dft calculations, wherein just one boron and nitrogen doping configuration have been considered, here for the average over all possible configurations, density of states (dos) was calculated in terms of boron and nitrogen ...
15 صفحه اولReview of Tolvaptan’s Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Properties and Drug Interactions
Tolvaptan is an arginine vasopressin (AVP) antagonist that acts to increase excretion of free water (aquaresis) in patients without introducing electrolyte abnormalities or worsening renal function. It works via blockade of vasopressin-2 receptors at the renal collecting duct. Since the approval of tolvaptan for the treatment of hypervolemic and euvolemic hyponatremia in 2009, new studies have ...
