Dose individualisation of antibiotics in critically ill patients with inflammation: A narrative review

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Due to extensive pathophysiological changes in critically ill patients, standard dosing of antibiotics may lead to inadequate drug exposure. This is concerning, as insufficient plasma drug concentrations may lead to treatment failure, whereas excessive drug exposure may increase the risk of toxic adverse events.
