CONCLUSION
Antibiotic dosing was not appropriate in 36.1% of patients but did not influence outcomes in a major way. There was a difference of 4.5 ml/min in GFR estimation between Jellife and CG formulae and it may be better to follow the former for drug dosing. In CKD, dose appropriateness was found to be a significant factor in achieving a favorable clinical outcome. It is imperative to determine the precise CrCl and dose accordingly, for the effective management of infections in CKD.
