NCT03588273

Brief Summary

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of bariatric surgery on the pharmacokinetics of amoxicillin. Methods: This study was performed as a randomized, open-label, single-dose clinical trial, with two periods of treatment, in which obese subjects (n=8) received amoxicillin 500 mg capsule orally before and 2 months after the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. The amoxicillin plasma concentration was determined by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change on the plasma concentration of amoxicillin

    Blood samples (6 mL) for determination of plasma concentration of amoxicillin were collected via a venous catheter into heparinized tubes at pre-dose (0 h), 0.33, 0.66, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6 and 8 h post-dose.

    Before and 2 months after bariatric surgery.

Study Arms (1)

Amoxil 500 mg Oral Capsule Time 0

OTHER

In each period (before the surgery and 2 months after the bariatric surgery) the obese volunteers received a single oral dose of amoxicillin 500 mg capsule (Amoxil®, GlaxoSmithKline Brazil Ltda.) with 200 mL water after an overnight fast (approximately 8 h).

Drug: Amoxil 500 MG Oral Capsule

Interventions

Amoxil 500 mg Oral Capsule Time 0
