Abstract
- Dactimicin is a new aminoglycoside antibiotic with an interesting low nephrotoxicity in animal experimental models. In order to establish if a correlation exists between the nephrotoxic effect and renal pharmacokinetic behaviour of aminoglycosides, tobramycin, sisomicin and dactimicin were studied in a model of isolated and perfused rat kidney. Concentrations in venous and urinary effluent during a continuous perfusion of a constant concentration of drugs were evaluated. The influence of active transport was studied comparing excretion data obtained with perfusion buffer with or without glucose. In the present experimental model the renal excretions of the aminoglycosides tested are quite similar and cannot account for the different nephrotoxicity observed in animals.
