Intraperitoneally Administered Vancomycin Results in Suboptimal Serum and Peritoneal Effluent Drug Levels in Patients with PD-related Peritonitis
In patients with PD-related peritonitis, intermittent intraperitoneal administration of 15 mg/kg of vancomycin every 96 h does not achieve the recommended serum and dialysate levels of vancomycin. There is an urgent need for pharmacokinetic studies on commonly used IP antibiotics in the PD population to facilitate correct dose recommendations.
