Pharmacokinetics of isepamicin in paediatric patients.

The pharmacokinetics of isepamicin were evaluated in 50 paediatric patients ranging from newborn to 13 years old. Children with subdivided according to age: Group I (6-13 years); Group II (4 months to 6 years); Group III (16 days to 4 months); and Group IV (newborn to 16 days). All patients received isepamicin 7.

Pharmacokinetics of isepamicin.

Isepamicin is a new aminoglycoside that has activity against many bacteria resistant to other aminoglycosides. The pharmacokinetics of isepamicin have been characterized in neonatal, pediatric, adult, elderly and renally impaired human populations as well as in clinical trials using the techniques of population pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of isepamicin are uncomplicated and generally similar to those of other aminoglycosides, although there is some evidence that it may have less tissue accumulation.

Pharmacokinetics of loratadine in patients with renal insufficiency.

The disposition of loratadine, a new orally active histamine H1 receptor antagonist and its primary metabolite descarboethoxyloratadine were characterized in adult volunteers with normal renal function (group I), patients with chronic renal failure, i.e., creatinine clearance less than 30 mL/min (group II), as well as chronic hemodialysis patients (group III).

Single and multiple dose pharmacokinetic evaluation of flutamide in normal geriatric volunteers.

Single dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics of flutamide (F) and its active plasma metabolite, hydroxyflutamide (HF) were studied in twelve healthy geriatric volunteers administered 250 mg flutamide capsules on day 1 and 250 mg flutamide capsules three times a day on days 2 through 9. After oral administration, F was rapidly absorbed and metabolized. It was present in the plasma in small and variable concentrations, which precluded quantitative assessment of pharmacokinetic parameters for individual subjects.
