Plasma pharmacokinetics of ceftolozane/tazobactam in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis.

This retrospective analysis demonstrated generally similar weight-normalized plasma PK parameters for ceftolozane and tazobactam among children with and without CF; thus, projected doses for treatment of pediatric hospital-acquired/ventilator-associated pneumonia, which are higher than the pediatric complicated urinary tract infection/intra-abdominal infection doses, may be appropriate for treatment of CF pulmonary exacerbation.
