"Cefadroxil"

Cefadroxil and cephalexin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in children with musculoskeletal infections. Cephalexin, a first-generation cephalosporin, is the first-line oral therapy for children with musculoskeletal infections due to methicillin-susceptible (MSSA). Cefadroxil, a similar first-generation cephalosporin, is an attractive alternative to cephalexin given its longer half-life . In this study, we describe the comparative pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of cephalexin and cefadroxil in children with musculoskeletal infections. Children aged 6 months to 18 years with a musculoskeletal infection were enrolled in a prospective, open-label, crossover PK study and given single oral doses of cefadroxil (50-75 mg/kg up to 2,000 mg) and cephalexin (50 mg/kg up to 1,375 mg

A Critical Review of Cephalexin and Cefadroxil for the Treatment of Acute Uncomplicated Lower Urinary Tract Infection in the Era of "Bad Bugs, Few Drugs". First-generation oral cephalosporins (cephalexin and cefadroxil) have traditionally been considered second-line treatment options for uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections (uLUTIs).  However, in the current age of "bad bugs, few drugs ", where there are increasingly limited oral options against resistant Enterobacteriaceae, there is an urgent need to rethink how best to utilize the available antibiotic armamentarium.  This review examines the historical clinical trials and experimental studies of cephalexin and cefadroxil, particularly through the modern lens of pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), to better appreciate

Species Differences in Human and Rodent PEPT2-Mediated Transport of Glycylsarcosine and Cefadroxil in Pichia Pastoris Transformants The proton-coupled oligopeptide transporter PEPT2 (SLC15A2) plays an important role in the disposition of di/tripeptides and peptide-like drugs in kidney and brain. However, unlike PEPT1 (SLC15A1), there is little information about species differences in the transport of PEPT2-mediated substrates. The purpose of this study was to determine whether PEPT2 exhibited a species-dependent uptake of glycylsarcosine (GlySar) and cefadroxil using yeast Pichia pastoris cells expressing cDNA from human, mouse, and rat. In such a system, the functional activity of PEPT2 was evaluated with [H]GlySar as a function of time, pH, substrate concentration, and specificity

Influence of Peptide Transporter 2 (PEPT2) on the Distribution of Cefadroxil in Mouse Brain: A Microdialysis Study Peptide transporter 2 (PEPT2) is a high-affinity low-capacity transporter belonging to the proton-coupled oligopeptide transporter family. Although many aspects of PEPT2 structure-function are known, including its localization in choroid plexus and neurons, its regional activity in brain, especially extracellular fluid (ECF), is uncertain. In this study, the pharmacokinetics and regional brain distribution of cefadroxil, a β-lactam antibiotic and PEPT2 substrate, were investigated in wildtype and Pept2 null mice using in vivo intracerebral microdialysis. Cefadroxil was infused intravenously over 4h at 0.15mg/min/kg, and samples obtained from plasma, brain ECF, cerebrospinal

Comparative bioavailability and pharmacokinetic study of Cefadroxil capsules in male healthy volunteers of Pakistan. The current study was aimed to judge bioequivalence between two formulations of cefadroxil capsules as guided by FDA guidelines. Another objective was to conduct pharmacokinetic evaluation in Pakistani population. A single-dose, randomized, cross-over pharmacokinetic study was conducted during the month of May'2013 to August'2013. Washout period was one week. Fourteen healthy male adult volunteers were enrolled in the study, however twelve completed the study. Cefadroxil plasma concentration was analyzed by using validated HPLC method. Protein precipitation was achieved by the addition of 6% tri chloro acetic acid in 1:1 ratio and detection was done at 260 nm. Retention time

Stevens–Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis caused by cefadroxil in a cat A 5-year-old, spayed female, indoor-only domestic shorthair cat was referred with an acute history of multifocal cutaneous and mucocutaneous erosive-ulcerative lesions and skin detachment. The lesions occurred on the seventh day of therapy with cefadroxil. Erosive-ulcerative and occasionally crusted lesions were was calculated; this supported the view that SJS/TEN in this cat was very likely to be associated with cefadroxil administration. This clinical communication reports cefadroxil as a very probable cause of SJS/TEN in a cat; the ALDEN was applied in this case and supported diagnosis.

Pharmacokinetics and Bioequivalence Evaluation of 2 Cefadroxil Suspensions in Healthy Egyptian Male Volunteers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bioavailability of 2 brands of cefadroxil monohydrate suspensions, Curisafe (500 mg cefadroxil monohydrate/5 mL; test) relative to Duricef (500 mg cefadroxil monohydrate/5 mL; reference). This in vivo study was conducted according to a single-center, randomized, single-dose, laboratory-blinded, 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover design with a washout period of 1 week. Under fasting conditions, 24 healthy Egyptian adult male volunteers were randomly allocated to receive a single dose of either test or reference product. Blood samples were collected at specified time intervals, and plasma was analyzed for cefadroxil concentration using

Species Differences in the Pharmacokinetics of Cefadroxil as Determined in Wildtype and Humanized PepT1 Mice PepT1 (SLC15A1) is a high-capacity low-affinity transporter that is important in the absorption of digested di/tripeptides from dietary protein in the small intestine. PepT1 is also crucial for the intestinal uptake and absorption of therapeutic agents such as the β-lactam aminocephalosporins and antiviral prodrugs. Species differences, however, have been observed in PepT1-mediated intestinal absorption and pharmacokinetics, thereby, making it more difficult to predict systemic drug exposure. In the present study, we evaluated the in situ intestinal permeability of the PepT1 substrate cefadroxil in wildtype and humanized PepT1 (huPepT1) mice, and the in vivo absorption

Impact of lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation on the disposition of the aminocephalosporin cefadroxil. The purpose of this study was to determine if the disposition of cefadroxil, an α-amino-containing β-lactam antibiotic, changes during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute inflammation. Six hours after LPS or saline treatment, mice received 1 nmol/g cefadroxil intravenously along with inulin for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) determination. Serial blood samples, along with tissue and urine samples, were collected at predetermined time points. In order to determine inflammation-induced changes in GFR, renal tubular secretion, and reabsorption, it was necessary to coadminister 70 mg/kg probenecid. Changes in the expression of the mRNA of transporters involved in cefadroxil

Simultaneous pharmacokinetic assessment of cefadroxil and clavulanic acid in human plasma by LC–MS and its application to bioequivalence studies A simple, rapid and selective liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-APCI-MS) assay method has been developed and fully validated for the simultaneous quantification of cefadroxil (CF) and clavulanic acid

(definition unclear) at the end of treatment for oral cefadroxil compared with placebo in children with infected eczema (it was unclear whether topical corticosteroids were used in either group). However, there were no statistically significant differences in other clinical-effectiveness outcomes. There were no differences in adverse events or withdrawals caused by adverse events for oral antibiotics (flucloxacillin or cefadroxil) compared with placebo in children with infected eczema. Efficacy of topical antibiotics Efficacy of topical antibiotics Evidence for efficacy of topical antibiotics was from 1 systematic review of RCTs. Some statistically significant differences were seen for the following comparison in children with infected eczema: Secondary bacterial infection of eczema and other common skin
