Foscarnet and zidovudine (ZDV) pharmacokinetic parameters were not altered in five patients receiving 14 days of concomitant therapy. Foscarnet clearance in plasma averaged (+/- standard deviation) 0.16 +/- 0.03 and 0.13 +/- 0.05 liter/h/kg of body weight in the absence and presence of ZDV. ZDV parameters were also not significantly altered, with a mean (+/- standard deviation) oral clearance of 2.7 +/- 1.0 and 2.6 +/- 0.8 liter/h/kg for the 2 study days, respectively.
