Objectives: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of piperacillin/tazobactam in critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and to assess the success of the therapy against susceptible bacteria.
Patients and methods: Sixteen patients undergoing CRRT with different degrees of renal function were included in the study. Blood and ultrafiltrate samples were drawn after administration of piperacillin/tazobactam (4/0.5 g) every 4, 6 or 8 h. The data were analysed by a population approach using NONMEM 7.2. The probability of target attainment (PTA) of maintaining free piperacillin levels above the MIC during the entire dosing interval was estimated by simulation of intermittent and continuous infusions.
Results: The pharmacokinetics of piperacillin and tazobactam were best described by two-compartment models where the elimination of both drugs was conditioned by renal [dependent on creatinine clearance (CLCR)], non-renal and extracorporeal clearances. A 20 min infusion of piperacillin/tazobactam administered every 6 h provided high PTAs against MICs ≤ 32 mg/L in patients with severe renal failure. In patients with normal or moderate renal function PTAs ≥ 90% were only obtained up to MICs ≤ 8 mg/L with short infusions. However, simulating continuous infusion, higher probabilities of success were obtained against MICs of 32 and 16 mg/L when CLCR was 50 and 100 mL/min, respectively.
Conclusions: Population pharmacokinetic models have been developed and validated for piperacillin and tazobactam. Based on the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis, dosing recommendations are given considering the residual renal function of the patient and the MIC for the isolated bacteria.
