Daptomycin Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Septic and Critically Ill Patients

Abstract: Infections, including sepsis, are associated with high mortality rates in critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Appropriate antibiotic selection and adequate dosing are important for improving patient outcomes. Daptomycin is bactericidal in bloodstream infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and other Gram-positive pathogens cultured in ICU patients. The drug has concentration-dependent activity, and the area under the curve/minimum inhibitory concentration ratio is the pharmacokinetic/p… Show more

“…Furthermore, FM (83 mg/L) combined with DAP (20.6 mg/L) and DAP monotherapy (47.1 mg/L) reduced the population of four VRE isolates to zero without re-growth at 24h. Previous reports demonstrated FM combined with DAP had synergistic effects as well [17,36]. Therefore, the combination of FM and DAP for patients with VRE infections, especially for patients with renal impairment, is of great signi cance for further clinical trials.…”

“…The bactericidal activities of FM, VAN and DAP, alone or in combination, against the five LZR-Efa isolates and ATCC 29212 were investigated using the time–kill method [ 10 ]. The following concentrations were used: FM 83 mg/L [ 11 ]; VAN 13.3 and 6 mg/L [ 12 ]; DAP, 20.6, 31.1 and 47.1 mg/L [ 13 ]; FM 83 mg/L + VAN 13.3 mg/L; FM 83 mg/L + VAN 6 mg/L; and FM 83 mg/L + DAP 20.6 mg/L. The media were supplemented with 25 mg/L G6P for testing of FM.…”
