Tazobactam %T>CT values were distinctly below proposed target values, indicating that tazobactam might be underdosed in the investigated drug combination. However, ISF/unbound plasma ratios of ceftolozane and tazobactam support their use in soft tissue infections. A plasma and soft tissue PK model adds important information on the PK profile of ceftolozane/tazobactam. Further investigations in patients suffering from wound infections are needed to confirm these findings.
