Resumo

Imipenem plasma concentrations were analyzed in 57 febrile neutropenic patients using the NONMEM program. The recommended 2-g/day regimen achieved coverage of the most common bacteria (MIC(90) = 1 mg/liter) during the whole dosing interval in only 53% of patients. This goal was achieved in 90% of patients with 3 g/day.
