Summary

Thein vivo serum kinetics of azlocillin and sisomicin were simulated in a newin vitro test model. A strong synergistic effect againstPseudomonas aeruginosa resulted when both compounds were administered simultaneously and eliminated according to their individual half-life values, even when the decreasing drug concentrations exceeded the MICs for only a short period of time. When applied at intervals, neither pretreatment with azlocillin nor with sisomicin blocked the antibacterial activity of the combination partner.

Zusammenfassung

DieIn vivo-Serumkinetik von Azlocillin und Sisomicin wurde in einem neuenIn vitro-Versuchsmodell simuliert. Ein starker synergistischer Effekt gegenPseudomonas aeruginosa ergab sich, wenn beide Substanzen gleichzeitig appliziert und entsprechend ihren jeweiligen Halbwertszeiten eliminiert wurden, selbst wenn die abfallenden Wirkstoffkonzentrationen die MHK-Werte nur kurzzeitig übertrafen. Bei zeitlich versetzter Gabe führte weder die Vorbehandlung mit Azlocillin noch mit Sisomicin zu einer Blockierung des Kombinationspartners.
