The influence of the mode of intravenous (i.v.) administration (bolus injection or continuous infusion) on the tissue penetration of ceftazidime was studied in the rat. The antibiotic concentration was monitored in serum, pleural exudate, vitreous humor, kidney, liver, lung, testicles and epididymal fat tissue. Administration as a bolus resulted in a significantly higher AUC in pleural exudate and in higher peak levels in serum, liver and lung than continuous infusion, which produced a higher peak concentration in kidney than a bolus. No differences in AUC and peak concentrations between the two methods of administration were observed in the other tissues or fluids. With either method of administration the highest antibiotic accumulation was observed in kidney.
