Population pharmacokinetics of levofloxacin in breastmilk in patients with rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Levofloxacin is a widely used antibiotic included in rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis (RR‐TB) treatment. Data describing levofloxacin concentrations in breastmilk and infant exposure are limited. We analysed data from two South African studies of breastfeeding women receiving levofloxacin (750–1000 mg daily) for RR‐TB.

Tobramycin pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic targets in people with cystic fibrosis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Intravenous tobramycin is a first‐line treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Tobramycin exhibits concentration‐dependent activity; however, excess drug exposure can lead to nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. While dosing typically targets serum peak (Cmax) and trough (Cmin) concentrations, the area under the ...
