Zemdri (Plazomicin)
- Medicine Name: Zemdri
- Generic Name: Plazomicin
- Dosage Form & Strength: Injection 500 mg/10 mL (50 mg/mL)
- Manufactured By: Achaogen, Inc
Medical Uses
Zemdri injection is an aminoglycoside antibacterial used in patients aged 18 years or older for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI), including pyelonephritis caused by the following susceptible microorganism(s): Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae and Proteus mirabilis.
Recommended Dosage: The recommended dosage regimen of Zemdri injection is 15 mg/kg given or administered every 24 hours by intravenous (IV) infusion over 30 minutes in patients aged 18 years or older and with CLcr (creatinine clearance) ≥ 90 mL/min. Time-span of therapy should be guided as per severity of infection as well as patient’s clinical status for up to 1-week (7 days). Throughout the therapy, dosage adjustments may be needed depending on the change in renal function.
Warning & Precautions
- Nephrotoxicity may occur with the use of Plazomicin. Evaluate CLcr prior to starting therapy and daily throughout therapy, particularly in those at higher risk of nephrotoxicity, such as those with renal impairment, the elderly, and those on concomitant potentially nephrotoxic medicines. In case of worsening renal function, the benefit of continuing Plazomicin Injection should be assessed.
- Ototoxicity, manifested as hearing loss, tinnitus, or vertigo, may occur with Zemdri. Aminoglycoside-associated ototoxicity may occur primarily in those with a family history of hearing loss (excluding age-related hearing loss), those with renal impairment, and in those receiving higher doses or for longer periods than required.
- Aminoglycosides may be linked with exacerbation of muscle weakness in those with underlying neuromuscular disorders, or delay in recovery of neuromuscular function in those receiving concomitant neuromuscular blocking agents. During therapy, monitor for side effects linked with neuromuscular blockade, particularly in high-risk patients, such as those with underlying neuromuscular disorders or those concomitantly receiving neuromuscular blocking agents.
- Aminoglycosides, including Zemdri 500 mg, can cause fetal harm if administered to a pregnant woman. Aminoglycosides cross the placenta, and streptomycin may be linked with several reports of total, irreversible, bilateral congenital deafness in pediatric patients exposed in utero. Patients who use Zemdri during pregnancy, or become pregnant while taking this medicine should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.
- Severe and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions may occur in patients receiving aminoglycoside antibacterial medicines. Before therapy with Plazomicin is instituted, watchful inquiry about previous hypersensitivity reactions to other aminoglycosides should be made.
- Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) may occur for almost all systemic antibacterial medicines and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Therapy with antibacterial medicines alters the normal flora of the colon and may permit overgrowth of C. difficile. In case Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea is suspected or confirmed, antibacterial medicines not directed against C. difficile should be discontinued. Manage fluid and electrolyte levels, supplement protein intake, assess antibacterial treatment of C. difficile, and institute surgical assessment.
- Prescribing Zemdri medicine in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection is unlikely to offer benefit to the patient and increases the probability of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
