This pilot prospective study verified the hypothesis that use of computer-assisted therapeutic drug monitoring of aminoglycosides by pharmacists leads to better safety therapeutic outcomes and cost avoidance than only concentration measurement and dose adjustments based on a physician's experience. Two groups of patients were enrolled according to the technique of monitoring. Patients (Group 1, n=52) underwent monitoring by a pharmacist using pharmacokinetic software. In a control group (Group 2, n=11), plasma levels were measured but not interpreted by the pharmacist, only by physicians. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups in factors influenced by therapy. However, the results are not statistically significant but a comparison of the groups showed a clear trend towards safety and cost avoidance, thus supporting therapeutic drug monitoring. Safety limits were achieved in 76 % and 63 % of cases in Groups 1 and 2, respectively. More patients achieved both concentrations (peak and trough) with falling eGFR in Group 1. In present pilot study, the pharmacist improved the care of patients on aminoglycoside therapy. A larger study is needed to demonstrate statistically significantly improved safety and cost avoidance of aminoglycoside therapy monitoring by the pharmacist using pharmacokinetic software.
