Abstract

Two dosages (7.5 and 15 mg/kg of body weight) of LY163892 were given to infants and children, and five plasma specimens were collected for antibiotic assay during the ensuing 4 h. Peak concentrations of 12.6 and 18.7 micrograms/ml occurred at 45 min. The mean half-lives were 0.85 and 0.78 h, and the mean areas under the curve were 24.4 and 38.0 micrograms.h/ml.
