Details

Renal elimination is a major pathway for drug clearance across many medication classes, including antibiotics. Failing to adequately predict differences in renal function can lead to suboptimal concentrations and therapy failure, or toxicity. Immaturity of organs in neonates and babies, renal dysfunction and dialysis procedures can have significant impacts on drug clearance and therefore on dose. Models that can account for these factors can be used to improve dosing for the individual. This symposium explores methods of predicting renal function for improved dosing, with a focus on antibiotics.
