  • Susceptible bacterial infections: IV doses should be given slowly over 30-60 minutes.

  • Local infections (e.g., joints, bladder): Considered if the site is easily accessible and if the animal shows signs of systemic nephrotoxicity.

概要

アミカシンは強力なアミノグリコシド系抗生物質であり、主に重篤なグラム陰性菌感染症、黄色ブドウ球菌、およびノカルジア属菌の治療に使用されます。ゲンタマイシンなどの他のアミノグリコシド系に耐性を持つ感染症の治療に特に有用です。

​臨床的警告​: 生体膜の透過性が低いため、全身投与には注射が必要であり、中枢神経系や眼内液への移行は極めて限定的です。​腎毒性​および​耳毒性​の重大なリスクを伴います。

作用機序

Aminoglycosides irreversibly bind to the 30S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria, inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis.

They exhibit concentration-dependent killing → leading to a marked post-antibiotic effect (PAE). This allows for prolonged dosing intervals (e.g., q24h), which maximizes bacterial kill rates while minimizing accumulation in renal tubular cells, thereby reducing toxicity.

安全性・警告

禁忌

  • Animals with pre-existing reduced renal function (unless benefits outweigh risks)
  • Dehydrated patients (without concurrent fluid therapy)

有害事象

  • Nephrotoxicity (tubular necrosis)
  • Ototoxicity (vestibular and auditory dysfunction)
  • Neuromuscular blockade (rare but possible)

注意事項

​Intravenous Administration:​ IV doses should be given slowly, generally over 30-60 minutes.

​Fluid Therapy:​ Concurrent fluid therapy is strongly advised to maintain glomerular filtration and reduce nephrotoxicity.

​Monitoring:​ Therapeutic drug monitoring (peak and trough serum levels) should be considered to ensure efficacy and minimize toxicity, especially in neonates, geriatric patients, and those with compromised renal function.

医薬品相互作用

Beta-lactam antimicrobials (Penicillins, Cephalosporins)Moderate

In vivo synergism against susceptible bacteria; however, they can cause in vitro inactivation of amikacin. Do not mix in the same syringe.

Amphotericin BMajor

Increased risk of severe nephrotoxicity.

FurosemideMajor

Increased risk of ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity.

HeparinModerate

In vitro inactivation of amikacin. Do not mix in the same syringe.

Neuromuscular blocking agentsMajor

Potentiation of neuromuscular blockade.

監視

  • Serum amikacin levels (peak for efficacy, trough for toxicity)
  • Renal function (BUN, serum creatinine, urinalysis for casts/proteinuria)
  • Hydration status
  • Auditory and vestibular function (if possible)

薬物動態

半減期

Approximately 1-2 hours (normal renal function)Approximately 1-2 hours (normal renal function)

吸収

Poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract; requires parenteral administration for systemic levels.

分布

Limited movement across biological membranes. Access to sites such as the CNS and ocular fluids is very limited. Greyhounds have a lower volume of distribution compared to other dog breeds.

代謝

Minimal hepatic metabolism.

消失

Excreted almost entirely unchanged via glomerular filtration in the kidneys.

過剰投与

Overdosage significantly increases the risk of ​acute tubular necrosis (nephrotoxicity)​ and ​vestibular/auditory damage (ototoxicity)​. Treatment is supportive. Discontinue the drug immediately and initiate aggressive intravenous fluid therapy to promote diuresis and maintain glomerular filtration rate.

飼主向け情報

アミカシンは重篤な感染症に使用される強力な抗生物質であり、通常は獣医師によって注射で投与されます。

  • ​腎臓の健康​: この薬は腎臓に影響を与える可能性があります。ペットが常に新鮮な水を飲めるようにしてください。ペットの飲水量や尿量に異常な変化(多飲多尿、または尿が出ないなど)が見られた場合は、すぐに獣医師に連絡してください。
  • ​聴覚とバランス​: まれに、この薬は聴覚や平衡感覚に影響を与えることがあります。ペットがめまいを起こしている、ふらついている、または音に反応しない場合は、獣医師にお知らせください。
