Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the urinary pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of faropenem administered orally at 5 mg kg in six healthy dogs to assess the efficacy of the drug for canine urinary tract infections (UTIs) with extended-spectrum -lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria. Six strains of ESBL-producing (ESBL-EC) with the following faropenem minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were used: 1 µg ml (=2), 2 µg ml (=2), 4 µg ml (=1) and 16 µg ml (=1). Urine samples were obtained every 4 h for the first 12 h after administration to measure urinary drug concentration and urinary bactericidal titres (UBTs). Both the urine concentration of faropenem and the UBTs for all tested strains peaked at 0–4 h after administration, and decreased markedly at 8–12 h. The mean urinary concentration of faropenem at 8–12 h (23±5.2 µg ml) exceeded the MIC of 1 µg ml by fourfold, which is required to inhibit the growth of 90  % of ESBL-EC. These findings indicate that faropenem administered twice daily at a dose of 5 mg kg is acceptable for the treatment of most dogs with ESBL-EC-related UTIs.
