Praktičtí lékaři pro děti a dorost a ambulantní specialisté předepisují z antiinfektiv nejčastěji betalaktamová antibiotika a z nich především peniciliny. Při lehčích až středně závažných infekcích je nezbytné, aby se minimální inhibiční koncentrace těchto antibiotik pro původce nákazy udržela v séru aspoň po dobu 40 % dávkovacího intervalu. To je možné při vhodném dávkování u V-PNC 8 hodin a při léčbě amoxicilinem a kombinací amoxicilinu s klavulanátem 12 hodin.

WHAT CAN BE THE REASONS FOR CHANGING THE DOSAGE OF ANTIBIOTICS?

Out of all the antibiotics pediatricians and outpatient specialists prescribe, beta-latam antibiotics and primarily penicillin, are among the most common. During the treatment of mild to moderate infections, it is necessary for the minimum inhibitory concentration of these antibiotics for the given pathogens to be maintained in the serum for a minimum of 40?% of the dosage interval. This can be achieved with V-PNC administered every 8 hours, amoxicillin and amoxicillin in combination with clavulanic acid administered every 12 hours.
