The dosage of antimicrobial agents from PK/PD analysis is now considered important for using these agents effectively and safely. In this paper, I will discuss the proper dosage of antimicrobial agents from the point of PK/PD analysis. I will also discuss the correlation between the safety profile and pharmacokinetic parameters of the agents. It is my hope that all pharmacists will understand the proper use of antimicrobial agents and thus will assure the effective and safe treatment of patients with infectious diseases.
