Multiple-dose study of imipenem/cilastatin in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing long-term hemodialysis.

Multiple doses of imipenem/cilastatin were administered to patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing long-term hemodialysis. Schedules of 250 mg every six hours, 500 mg every six hours, and 500 mg every 12 hours were studied. Five hundred mg every 12 hours was the most efficient schedule that maintained effective trough antibiotic activity. Twelve volunteers including two patients with clinical infections using the dose schedule of 500 mg every 12 hours received imipenem/cilastatin for two to 14 days without any notable clinical side effects. Imipenem peak and trough concentrations averaged 29 +/- 5 micrograms/ml and 10 +/- 3 micrograms/ml, respectively. No accumulation of imipenem occurred during the trial. Cilastatin peak and trough concentrations were 89 +/- 38 micrograms/ml and 70 +/- 27 micrograms/ml, respectively. The plasma concentration of cilastatin increased with each dose until the next hemodialysis session.[1]
