Title

Clinical Pharmacokinetics of Gentamicin in Neonates

Pages

  4575-4599

Abstract

Gentamicin is a bactericidal aminoglycoside antibiotic, it inhibits the protein synthesis. Gentamicin is active against the majority of aerobic gram-negative bacilli such as Pseudomonas, Klebsiella and Escherichia coli. The Gentamicin doses are 3 mg/kg once-daily for preterm newborns < 35 weeks of gestation and 4 mg/kg once-daily for newborns > 35 weeks of gestation. The monitoring of Gentamicin serum concentration is recommended when infants are treated for 48 hours or more. The Gentamicin peak concentration must be at least 8 times the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to be bactericidal and the Gentamicin trough concentration must be < 2 μ g/ml to avoid otoToxicity and nephroToxicity. Once-daily dosing of Gentamicin (4 mg/kg), is preferred than twice-daily dose of 2. 5 mg/kg Gentamicin. A Gentamicin loading dose (4 mg/kg), followed by once-daily dosing of 2. 5 mg/kg yields safe and target range in Neonates. An extended dosing interval of 48-hour (5 mg/kg Gentamicin), was compared with twice-daily dose of 2. 5 mg/kg Gentamicin. Infants in the 48-hour interval and in the twice-daily achieved peak Gentamicin concentrations of 9. 43 μ g/ml and 6. 0 μ g/ml, respectively, (p<0. 001), and trough Gentamicin concentrations were 1. 08 μ g/ml and 1. 54 μ g/ml, respectively, (p<0. 001). The infants born small for gestational age have a reduced Gentamicin clearance, and a more prolonged Gentamicin half-life than infants born appropriate for gestational age. Patent ductus arteriosus, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, therapeutic hypothermia, and asphyxia reduce the Gentamicin clearance.
