Pharmacokinetics of ribostamycin in healthy volunteers and patients with impaired renal function.

Ribostamycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic produced by Streptomyces ribosidificus, and extracted and isolated by NIIDA et. al. It has been used widely clinically with its characteristic of low ototoxicity. UMEMURA et al. studied the pharmacokinetics of this antibiotic in animals and reported that it has a similar pharmacokinetic behavior in vivo to kanamycin. In the present studies, the pharmacokinetic behavior of ribostamycin was studied in 5 healthy adult volunteers receiving different doses (0.5 g, 1.0 g and 1.5 g) by intramuscular injection, and 0.5 g by intravenous drip infusion. In addition, a similar study was conducted with 11 patients with varying degrees of renal dysfunction in order to study the application of ribostamycin in such patients.[1]
