Ofloxacin Concentration-toxicity Relationship in the Elderly
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
ofloxacin: ofloxacin treatment in patients with bone and joint infections
questionnaire: questionnaire of ofloxacine side effects will be completed by the clinician at Day 3, Day 21 and Day 42
Ofloxacin Serum concentration: Serum concentration of ofloxacin will be measured at Day 3 (Cmin and Cmax), Day 21 and Day 42 (Cmin).
Study summary
Ofloxacin is a gold standard antibiotic for the treatment of bone and joint infections due to sensible staphylococcus strains. However, in the elderly, inter-individual variability of the pharmacokinetics may reduce the efficacy or increase toxicity. The occurrence of ofloxacin side effects is likely to be increased in case of higher exposition. However, the serum concentration-toxicity relationship has not yet been determined. The purpose of this project is to assess the association between the residual serum concentration of ofloxacin at day 3 and the occurrence of at least one adverse effect attributable to ofloxacin, and determine a threshold toxicity concentration if this association exists.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Frequency of one adverse reaction attributable to ofloxacin in patients with bone and joint infections — day 3
