Lung amoxicillin levels were assessed in tissue obtained from 16 patients who underwent lung resection due to different pulmonary diseases. In this double-blind placebo controlled study patients were allocated to two groups in randomized order; one group received amoxicillin 1000 mg t.i.d. (n = 8) and the other amoxicillin 1000 mg + ambroxol 60 mg t.i.d. (n = 8). A trend towards higher antibiotic lung tissue levels was observed in patients who received the antibiotic together with the mucolytic...
Lung amoxicillin levels were assessed in tissue obtained from 16 patients who underwent lung resection due to different pulmonary diseases. In this double-blind placebo controlled study patients were allocated to two groups in randomized order; one group received amoxicillin 1000 mg t.i.d. (n = 8) and the other amoxicillin 1000 mg + ambroxol 60 mg t.i.d. (n = 8). A trend towards higher antibiotic lung tissue levels was observed in patients who received the antibiotic together with the mucolytic agent. The ratio pulmonary tissue/serum amoxicillin levels reached a significant difference being higher in the amoxicillin plus ambroxol group than in the other one (0.411 +/- 0.04 vs 0.672 +/- 0.07; p less than 0.01), even if the amoxicillin plasma levels were lower. A possible effect of ambroxol on lung tissue penetration of amoxicillin is suggested and discussed.
