RESUMO
We have examined the pharmacokinetics of moxalactam (LY127935) in 36 subjects with various degrees of renal dysfunction. Creatinine clearance (Ccr)/1.73 m2 ranged from zero to 135.8 ml/min. After a 1-g administration of moxalactam intravenously, the volume of distribution was 20.6 /+- 9.5 liters (0.28 liter/kg), and the mean half-life ranged from 3.1 h for subjects with Ccr greater than 65 ml/min to 19.3 h for subjects with Ccr less than 10 ml/min. The moxalactam clearance was closely correlated to Ccr (r = 0.93, P less than 0.0001) and excretion of antibiotic was 73.6 +/- 13% in normal subjects. Renal clearance accounted for 90% of moxalactam clearance in the normal subjects. A dosage schedule for administering moxalactam to patients with various degrees of renal dysfunction is provided.
