title: Pharmacokinetics and dosage requirements of netilmicin in cystic fibrosis patients.
abstract: The pharmacokinetics of netilmicin were determined in 10 patients with cystic fibrosis. Mean (+/- standard error of the mean) values for total body clearance and volume of distribution were 2.62 (+/- 0.18) ml/min per kg of body weight and 0.38 (+/- 0.01) liter/kg, respectively, and were considerably larger than the same parameters reported for patients without cystic fibrosis.
