Pharmacokinetics of ertapenem in critically ill patients with acute renal failure undergoing extended daily dialysis

Abstract: In contrast to patients undergoing regular IHD, in which a dose reduction is required, our data suggest that in patients treated with EDD a standard dose of ertapenem (1 g/day), i.e. dose for patients without renal failure, is required to maintain adequate plasma drug levels.

“…Mean volume in the peritoneal space was 2.6 L, roughly the amount of fluid administered during each exchange. Clearance was approximately 0.3 L/h, close to previous approximations for patients with minimal kidney function (8,(23)(24)(25). Finally, a physiologic amount of residual drug (approximately 0.5 mg) was estimated to remain in the peritoneal cavity after drainage.…”

“…Intraperitoneal (IP) administration of daptomycin is a possible alternative to IV administration (27)(28)(29). However, further pharmacokinetic, clinical, and stability studies are necessary before IP administration of daptomycin is adopted as the standard of practice for peritonitis (8). Several things should be noted when interpreting these results.…”

“…In some instances, critically ill patients requiring RRTs require higher doses of antibiotic than recommended for individuals receiving intermittent hemodialysis for end-stage renal disease (13,23,24). A pharmacokinetic study of ertapenem in critically ill subjects requiring extended daily dialysis (blood and dialysate flow rates of 160 ml/min, treatment duration of 480 min) suggested that a dose of 1 g every 24 h, substantially higher than the manufacturer's suggested dosing for patients with creatinine clearance of Ͻ30 ml/min/1.73 m 2 (500 mg q24h) or receiving maintenance hemodialysis (500 mg within 6 h prior to hemodialysis, supplementary 150 mg following the hemodialysis session), is more appropriate to achieve bactericidal targets (1,25).…”

“…While ertapenem pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters are well described in the general population, there are scant data on the PK properties of ertapenem in patients receiving renal replacement therapies (4,20). To date, there are no published studies evaluating the PK of ertapenem during PD, a dialysis modality used by 26,000 patients in the United States (27).…”
