Abstract

In this report we present pharmacokinetic (Pk) data of daptomycin given intravenously in a peritoneal dialysis patient. Daptomycin plasma levels were within therapeutic range; however, half-life of the drug was prolonged compared to haemodialysis. Both plasma and dialysate levels were found to be consistently above the minimal inhibitory concentration for daptomycin sensitive strains.
