Aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of quercetin and enrofloxacin with/without quercetin on elimination of pathogen Escherichia coli O78/H12 in infected chickens. Effect of quercetin on disposition of enrofloxacin was investigated and Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic indices were calculated. Enrofloxacin was absorbed after oral administration in infected animals but with large inter-individual variations. Low concentrations of its main metabolite, ciprofloxacin, were found which could be explained with marked reduction of enrofloxacin transformation in infected animals. Quercetin significantly decreased bioavailability of enrofloxacin and its transformation to ciprofloxacin. Lower formation of metabolite was also found in the studied tissues as spleen, heart, lungs and in liver of group treated in combination with quercetin. Results in infected and quercetin (50 mg/kg) treated group shows lower percentage of re-isolates of the pathogen bacteria in comparison to infected and untreated animals, and close to the low dose (10 mg/kg) of enrofloxacin. High dose of enrofloxacin given in a short time in an infection model with high inoculum size, resulted in better eradication of bacteria although re-isolates could be found in spleen. Additional improvement of the outcome of fluoroquinolone therapy could be searched in early start of drug administration according to the terms of metaphylaxis.

A Review of Vancomycin, Gentamicin, and Amikacin Population Pharmacokinetic Models in Neonates and Infants.
Clin Pharmacokinet

Division of Medicines, Department of Pharmacy, Pharmacy Service, Hospital Clinic of Barcelona, Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.
Population pharmacokinetic (popPK) models are an essential tool when implementing therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and to overcome dosing challenges in neonates in clinical practice. Since vancomycin, gentamicin, and amikacin are among the most prescribed antibiotics for the neonatal population, we aimed to characterize the popPK models of these antibiotics and the covariates that may influence the pharmacokinetic parameters in neonates and infants with no previous pathologies. We searched the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases and the bibliographies of relevant articles from inception to the beginning of February 2024.

Background: YYD601 is a new dual delayed-release formulation of esomeprazole, developed to enhance plasma exposure and prolong the duration of acid suppression.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of YYD601 20 mg following single and multiple oral administrations in healthy, fasting adult Koreans, and to compare these outcomes to those of the conventional esomeprazole 20 mg capsule.
Methods: A randomized, open-label, two-period crossover study was conducted in 28 participants, who were divided into two treatment groups: one group received YYD601 20 mg, and the other received conventional esomeprazole 20 mg, once daily for five consecutive days.
Physiologically based Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Modeling (PBPK/PD) of Famotidine in Pregnancy.

Famotidine, a H-receptor antagonist, is commonly used to treat heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease during pregnancy. However, information on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of famotidine in pregnant patients is limited since pregnant patients are usually excluded from clinical trials. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for famotidine in non-pregnant and pregnant populations, and to combine it with a pharmacodynamic (PD) model to predict the effect of famotidine on intragastric pH.

Objectives: To expand a translational pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) modelling approach for assessing the combined effect of polymyxin B and minocycline against Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Methods: A PKPD model developed based on in vitro static time-kill experiments of one strain (ARU613) was first translated to characterize that of a more susceptible strain (ARU705), and thereafter to dynamic time-kill experiments (both strains) and to a murine thigh infection model (ARU705 only). The PKPD model was updated stepwise using accumulated data.
Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of an Innovative Psychedelic N,N-Dimethyltryptamine/Harmine Formulation in Healthy Participants: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Int J Neuropsychopharmacol

Department of Adult Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Psychiatric University Clinic Zurich and University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: Recent interest in the clinical use of psychedelics has highlighted plant-derived medicines like ayahuasca showing rapid-acting and sustainable therapeutic effects in various psychiatric conditions. This traditional Amazonian plant decoction contains N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and β-carboline alkaloids such as harmine. However, its use is often accompanied by distressing effects like nausea, vomiting, and intense hallucinations, possibly due to complex pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) interactions and lack of dose standardization.
