Antimicrobial pharmacodynamics are an area of considerable importance in terms of dose regimen optimisation and clinical outcome. The pharmacodynamic properties of penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, quinolones, glycopeptides and aminoglycosides are reviewed; the impact such knowledge may have in the future on how we dose these agents is discussed.
