Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Modeling of Amoxicillin in Neonates and Infants

Objective

An amoxicillin PBPK model was previously developed and validated in healthy adults as well as adults with altered renal function [1-2]. The purpose of this study was to explore the utility of the model in describing amoxicillin pharmacokinetics (PK) in neonates and infants.
