Abstract

The bioavailability of amdinocillin was not altered when amdinocillin pivoxil was ingested 1 h before a standard breakfast, and it increased by 20% when amdinocillin pivoxil was ingested with or 1 h after a standard breakfast. Amdinocillin pivoxil would be convenient for patients since it may be taken with or without food.
