Antimicrobial Activity of Fosfomycin-Tobramycin Combination against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates Assessed by Time-Kill Assays and Mutant Prevention Concentrations.

TL;DR: Fosfomycin-tobramycin can be an alternative for infections due to P. aeruginosa since it has demonstrated synergistic and bactericidal activity in susceptible isolates and those with low-level tobramYcin resistance, and it prevents the emergence of resistant mutants in either aerobic or anaerobic environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of population pharmacokinetic models for amikacin dosage individualization in critically ill patients

TL;DR: Evaluated the reliability for dosage individualization and Bayesian adaptive control of several literature‐retrieved amikacin population pharmacokinetic models in patients who were critically ill.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vancomycin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury Detected by a Prospective Pharmacovigilance Program From Laboratory Signals

TL;DR: Renal function and vancomycin trough levels should be closely monitored from the second week of treatment in adults, intensive care patients, and those who receive concurrent nephrotoxic agents.
Journal Article

[Pharmacoeconomic analysis of the treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with daptomycin or vancomycin].

TL;DR: According to this model, daptomycin is more cost-effective than vancomycin in treating MRSA bacteremia, and the higher cost of acquisition of d aptomycin does not imply aHigher cost of treating this infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erratum to: 39th ESCP European symposium on clinical pharmacy & 13th SFPC congress: clinical pharmacy at the front line of innovations. 21–23 October 2010, Lyon, France

TL;DR: This abstract should have been included in the abstract set and is therefore not included.

Clinical Response to Aminoglycoside Therapy: Importance of the Ratio of Peak Concentration to Minimal Inhibitory Concentration

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a high peak concentration relative to the MIC for the infecting organism is a major determinant of the clinical response to aminoglycoside therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacodynamics of Vancomycin and Other Antimicrobials in Patients with Staphylococcus aureus Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

TL;DR: Vancomycin AUC24/MIC values predict time-related clinical and bacteriological outcomes for patients with lower respiratory tract infections caused by methicillin-resistant S. aureus by using data gathered from a therapeutic monitoring environment that observes failures in some cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Properties of Vancomycin

TL;DR: The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data related to vancomycin are reviewed and such clinical issues as toxicities and serum concentration monitoring are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacodynamics of Levofloxacin: A New Paradigm for Early Clinical Trials

TL;DR: Exposure to levofloxacin was significantly associated with successful clinical and microbiological outcomes and occurrence of adverse events in infected patients and could be used to determine optimal treatment dose in clinical trials in a shorter time frame with fewer patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experience with a once-daily aminoglycoside program administered to 2,184 adult patients.

TL;DR: An ODA program at this institution that utilizes a fixed 7-mg/kg intravenous dose with a drug administration interval based on estimated creatinine clearance appears to be clinically effective, reduces the incidence of nephrotoxicity, and provides a cost-effective method for administration of aminoglycosides by reducing ancillary service time and serum am inoglycoside determinations.
