Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic optimisation of intravenous tobramycin dosing among children with cystic fibrosis.

This study aimed to characterize the pharmacokinetics of tobramycin administered one, two, or three times daily and to develop an optimal dosing scheme for children with cystic fibrosis. Therapeutic drug monitoring data were obtained from children hospitalized at three academic medical centres from 2006 to 2012. Population pharmacokinetic models were constructed using NONMEM 7.
