Abstract:
Objective To explore the strategies of drug treatment and pharmaceutical care for children with bacterial meningitis. Methods The anti-infective therapy, therapeutic drug monitoring and dose adjustment of vancomycin in children with bacterial meningitis were analyzed and discussed according to relevant guidelines and literatures. Results Clinical pharmacists analyzed therapeutic regimen. According to the results of etiology and drug sensitivity, meropenem was discontinued and rifampicin was added. Based on drug monitoring of vancomycin, it is suggested to extend the infusion time of vancomycin to reach the target concentration. The child was discharged from hospital. Conclusion Recommendations of the relevant drug treatment guidelines and the latest medical research evidence should be provided by clinical pharmacists in order to promote reasonable and effective clinical uses of medicine.
