Abstract
This study assessed the pharmacokinetic profiles for intramuscular and intravenous ceftaroline treatment for rats, rabbits, and monkeys. Ceftaroline, a novel cephalosporin with broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetic profiles following intramuscular administration in all 3 animal species, comparable to the levels for intravenous dosing. The areas under the plasma concentration-time curve obtained after intramuscular administration were increased in rats and similar in rabbits and monkeys, compared with the levels obtained after intravenous dosing (129%, 7.29%, and 12.7% greater in rats, rabbits, and monkeys, respectively). The data reported here support the development of an intramuscular formulation for ceftaroline.
