RESUMEN
Antecedentes. La resistencia en bacterias grampositivas se ha ido incrementando en los últimos años. Las bacterias resistentes como
Staphylococcus aureus,
Streptococcus pneumoniae y
Enterococcus patógenos frecuentes en infecciones comunitarias y nosocomiales. El tratamiento de las infecciones por grampositivos resistentes se complica por la resistencia a meticilina/oxacilina en
S. aureus, a penicilinas en
S. pneumoniae y a vancomicina en
Enterococos.
Objetivo. Revisar las propiedades farmacocinéticas y farmacodinámicas de linezolid.
Fuentes de información. Búsqueda en Medline de estudios relacionados con la farmacocinética y farmacodinámica de linezolid.
Selección de estudios. Se revisaron cincuenta estudios.
Resultados. Linezolid es un nuevo agente antimicrobiano que pertenece a la familia de las oxazolidinonas. Linezolid es un inhibidor de síntesis proteica. Linezolid es activo contra una variedad de bacterias grampositivas sensibles y resistentes. Después de la administración de 600 mg la vida media es de 5.5 horas en la fase de eliminación, las concentraciones máximas promedio en plasma son de 15 a 21 μg/mL. La biodisponibilidad después de su administración oral es del 100%, con un tiempo para concentración máxima por esta vía de administración de 1.0 a 1.5 horas. Linezolid tiene una buena penetración tisular incluyendo piel y sus estructuras y el tejido pulmonar. La dosis usual de linezolid en adultos es de 600 mg cada 12 horas y en pediatría la dosis usual será muy probablemente de 10 mg/kilo cada 8 horas. El éxito terapéutico de linezolid está relacionado directamente con una concentración superior a las concentraciones inhibitorias mínimas, que excedan el 39% del tiempo entre dosis. La absorción rápida después de la administración oral facilitará altas tempranas de pacientes con infecciones severas.
Conclusiones. Las características farmacocinéticas, farmacodinámicas y de farmacoeconomía son bases para el uso de linezolid en el tratamiento de infecciones por bacterias grampositivas resistente.
