Abstract
We performed a prospective cohort study to investigate oseltamivir administration in critically ill children. We found that enteric tube administration of oseltamivir resulted in lower concentrations of its active metabolite compared with oral delivery. These findings could have significant clinical implications, and more studies are required to better understand the effects of administration route on potential lower systemic metabolite exposure.Entities:
