NEBULIZED CEFTAZIDIME IN EXPERIMENTAL PNEUMONIA CAUSED BY PARTIALLY RESISTANT PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 01 February 2010

 Ferrari F. et al

About this article:"In this piglet mechanically ventilated animal model  of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, partially resistant  VAP , nebulized or systemic ceftazidime (MIC: 16 mg/L) were administered. Very interestingly, nebulized ceftazidime was more effective in killing Pseudomonas aeruginosa in lungs. This animal study support the concept of administering nebulized antibiotics in multidrug resistant microorganism VAP."

PHARMACODYNAMIC PROFILE OF TIGECYCLINE AGAINST METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS IN A EXPE PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 29 January 2010

Koomanachai P. et al 

About this article:"The current article reports the results  of the exposure-response relationship for tigecycline against S.aureus including metilin resistance in a murine model. Authors evaluated PK/PD relationships in BAL and in serum  at dosages of 1.56 to 150 mg/Kg of body weigth  in a single or three divided doses. Authors concluded that tigecycline was very effective in this murine model and that the FAUC/MIC targets are achievable with the the conventional doses recommended in humans"
