Abstract

We investigated dose-fractionated polymyxin B (PB) on acute kidney injury (AKI). PB at 12 mg of drug/kg of body weight per day (once, twice, and thrice daily) was administered in rats over 72 h. The thrice-daily group demonstrated the highest KIM-1 increase ( P = 0.018) versus that of the controls ( P = 0.99) and histopathological damage ( P = 0.013). A three-compartment model best described the data (bias, 0.
