Preface
To use antibiotics appropriately, the clinician needs to understand fundamental
pharmacodynamicconcepts.Theseconceptsareessential,fortheyformthevery
basis for therapeutic strategies that maximize clinical benefit while minimizing
toxicitytothepatient.Theobjectivesofthisbookare,first,toreviewtheconstel-
lationofscientificandmedicalliteratureconcerningantibioticsandpharmacody-
namics. The relevance of this complex information is then synthesized into an
easy-to-understanddiscussionofconceptandtheory.Finally,thereaderisshown
howtoapplythesetheoriesandconcepts,withspecificexamples,totheclinical
practice of medicine and pharmacy. In other words, this book takes the reader
from the test tube, through the animal and human volunteer laboratory, to the
patient’s bedside.
The book includes a thorough discussion of the pharmacodynamics of all
major classes of the antimicrobial armamentarium. These include penicillins,
cephalosporins, cephamycins, carbapenems, monobactams, aminoglycosides,
quinolones, macrolides, antifungals, antivirals and others. Additionally, a phar-
macodynamic discussion of new classes of antimicrobial agents that are upon
the horizon, such as the ketolide antibiotics, is included.
This book is unique in that no other text of its kind currently exists. The
