The pharmacokinetics of aztreonam were studied in 6 healthy male volunteers and 12 male patients with various degrees of chronic renal failure after intravenous bolus injection of 1g of the drug. Serum pharmacokinetics of aztreonam were described by an open, two-compartment kinetic model. The serum levels of aztreonam exceeded the reported minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)90 for Enterobacteriaceae for 8 hours and up to 24 hours, in healthy volunteers and renal failure patients, respectively. However, the serum levels of the drug exceeded the MIC50 for Pseudomonas aeruginosa for only 4 hours and 12 hours in healthy volunteers and patients, respectively. The half-life of elimination (t 1/2/beta) increased significantly (P less than 0.001) from 1.8 +/- 0.14 h in healthy volunteers and to 4.9 +/- 1.1 h in patients with renal failure. The total serum clearance of aztreonam decreased significantly (P less than 0.001) from 84.2 +/- 7.8 ml/h/kg in healthy volunteers to 30.2 + 9.2 ml/h/kg in patients with renal failure. A linear correlation (r = 0.971, P less than 0.001) was found between creatinine clearance and the total serum clearance of aztreonam. The AUC0-infinity increased significantly (P less than 0.001) from 137.5 +/- 12.2 micrograms/h/ml in healthy volunteers to 464 +/- 114.5 micrograms/h/ml in patients with renal failure. |
