Résumé
This article reports a pharmacokinetic case study of intravenous posaconazole in a 49-year-old male patient with intra-abdominal sepsis and hypoalbuminaemia receiving continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration. Concentration-time data following 300 mg intravenous posaconazole was analysed using a population pharmacokinetics approach. The 300-mg intravenous dose appears to be adequate for the treatment of yeast infections; however, for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis in isolated cases of critically ill patients with hypoalbuminaemia, the current dosing may not achieve desired exposure, although steady state exposure data are needed.
