| pubmed-article:19636279 | pubmed:abstractText | We evaluated the use of micafungin as a prophylaxis in very-low-birth-weight infants. Micafungin was first administered to 25 very-low-birth-weight infants 12 to 24 hours after birth at a dose of 1 mg/kg/d. the apparent volume of distribution, the apparent elimination rate constant, the elimination half-life, and the total body clearance (mean +/- SD) were 0.76 +/- 0.28 L/kg, 0.12 +/- 0.041 1/h, 6.7 +/- 2.2 h, and 0.089 +/- 0.047 L/kg/h, respectively. | lld:pubmed |
