ABSTRACT
The pharmacokinetics of ciprofloxacin were examined after five days of treatment with 500 mg orally and 200 mg intravenously twice a day, in six healthy volunteers in an open, randomized crossover study. The ciprofloxacin concentrations were determined in serum by high performance liquid chromatography. The mean serum peak concentrations were obtained in 1 to 1.5 h by the oral route and the values reached were similar after the oral and intravenous dose (2.56 +/- 0.62 micrograms/ml and 2.6 +/- 0.67 micrograms/ml respectively). The terminal elimination half-life was about 4.5 h for oral form and 5 h for intravenous form. The absolute bioavailability of the oral ciprofloxacin was about 83%.
