PK/PD-Guided Strategies for Appropriate Antibiotic Use in the Era of Antimicrobial Resistance by Tetsushu Onita, Noriyuki Ishihara, Takahisa Yano

“…First, we discuss the importance of drug concentration management for enhancing efficacy while preventing toxicity, considering various patient populations, including pediatric and elderly patients with their unique physiological characteristics. Second, we analyze different PK modeling approaches: the classic top-down approach exemplified by population PK analysis, the bottom-up approach represented by physiologically based PK modeling, and hybrid models combining both approaches for enhanced predictive performance. …”
