Popis: | Objectives: We evaluated the effects of probenecid on the Pharmaco Kinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of oral cephalexin in healthy volunteers. Methods: Cephalexin 1000 mg was administered orally to 11 healthy volunteers following a standardized meal, with and without probenecid 500 mg orally, on two separate days one week apart. Total plasma concentrations of cephalexin and probenecid over a 12 h period were measured by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Standard pharmacokinetic measures and contemporary PK/PD targets were compared. Results: Probenecid increased the mean (95% CI) cephalexin area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞) 1.73-fold (1.61–1.85, p Conclusions: Probenecid prolonged and flattened the plasma concentration-time curve, enhancing the probability of attaining PK/PD targets. Co-administration of probenecid may expand the clinical benefits of oral cephalexin. |
