While Amikacin Inhale (BAY41-6551), an integrated drug-device combination under development, achieves an estimated amikacin epithelial lining fluid (ELF) concentration of ∼ 5000 mg/L, its target site pharmacodynamics are unknown. We evaluated the pharmacodynamics of ELF exposure of inhaled amikacin ± meropenem.
