Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The parameters to determine the bioequivalence are Area Under the Curve (AUC), maximum concentration (Cmax), time of maximum concentration (Tmax) and bioavailability (F). 6 blood samples (>= 0,5 ml each) for the different formulations will be drawn from the available central line; one trough level and five additional samples after administration of ciprofloxacin. These will used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters utilizing NONMEM (non-linear mixed effects modeling). These parameters of the formulations of ciprofloxacin will be compared to each other within the same patient. All samples and therefore pk parameters will be determined during steady state.
