Mathematical Modeling of Bacterial Kinetics to Predict the Impact of Antibiotic Colonic Exposure and Treatment Duration on the Amount of Resistant Enterobacteria Excreted
Figure 4
Predicted total amounts of resistant enterobacteria excreted for various levels of fecal ciprofloxacin concentrations and treatment duration.
Total amounts excreted and fecal ciprofloxacin concentrations are expressed as a relative reduction from the clinically relevant dose (15 mg/kg/day).
