AB The objective of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of
fluconazole after oral administration in children with human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. After an overnight fast, a
single dose of either 2 mg.kg-1 or 8 mg.kg-1 was administered in a
suspension; five children received 2 mg.kg-1 and four 8 mg.kg-1 (ages
5-13 years). Blood samples were collected at various times on day 1, and
once daily on days 2-7 after the dose. Fluconazole serum concentrations
were measured by gas chromatography. At the dose of 2 mg.kg-1, the Cmax,
AUC (0-infinity), and t1/2 ranged from 2.3-4.4 micrograms.ml-1, 84.9-136
micrograms.h.ml-1, and 19.8-34.8 h, respectively. At the dose of 8
mg.kg-1 the Cmax, AUC (0-infinity), and t1/2 ranged from 5.4-12.1
micrograms.ml-1, 330-684 micrograms h.ml-1, and 25.6-42.3 h,
respectively. When compared with published data in healthy adults,
fluconazole achieved similar serum concentrations in the present group
of children, indicating a nearly complete degree of absorption.
