This systematic review summarizes evidence on antibiotic pharmacokinetic alterations caused by obesity and provides guidance for dose adjustment in adult patients (BMI >30 kg/m²). The review found that obesity modestly alters the pharmacokinetics of β-lactam antibiotics (not supporting routine dose adjustments), but significantly impacts aminoglycosides and glycopeptides, for which weight-based dosing is recommended. Overall evidence certainty was low or very low.
This text provides clinical information, including adult and pediatric dosages, administration guidelines, and indications for various antibiotics. It covers aminopenicillins (Amoxicillin, Ampicillin) and their combinations (e.g., Augmentin, Unasyn), detailing bioavailability and dosing schedules. Furthermore, it classifies and provides detailed drug profiles for the first, second, and third generations of cephalosporins, listing specific agents (e.g., Cefadroxil, Cephalexin, Ceftriaxone) and their uses in treating conditions like UTIs, RTIs, and otitis media.
