Popis: | The pharmacokinetics of daptomycin (10 mg/kg once daily) was studied in 4 critically ill pediatric patients aged 8 to 14 yrs. The area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC 0–∞ ) of plasma concentrations on day 1 ranged between 123.8 to 663.9 μg · h/ml, with lower values observed in septic and burn patients; clearance ranged from 15.1 to 80.7 ml/h/kg. Higher-than-recommended doses of daptomycin may be needed in septic children to ensure optimal drug exposure. Interpatient variability may suggest a role for therapeutic drug monitoring. |
