LAROTID vs PIPERACILLIN
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Larotrectinib is a selective inhibitor of tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) A, B, and C. It inhibits TRK kinase activity by binding to the ATP-binding site, leading to inhibition of downstream signaling pathways, which results in reduced cell proliferation and tumor growth in tumors with NTRK gene fusions.
Inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting transpeptidation, and activating autolytic enzymes.
Larotrectinib 100 mg orally twice daily, with or without food, for adult patients.
3.375 g IV every 6 hours (piperacillin-tazobactam); for piperacillin alone, 3 g IV every 6 hours.

Clinical Note
moderatePiperacillin + Probenecid
"The serum concentration of Probenecid can be increased when it is combined with Piperacillin."
Clinical Note
moderatePiperacillin + Mycophenolic acid
"The serum concentration of the active metabolites of Mycophenolic acid can be reduced when Mycophenolic acid is used in combination with Piperacillin resulting in a loss in efficacy."
Clinical Note
moderatePiperacillin + Plicamycin
"The serum concentration of Plicamycin can be decreased when it is combined with Piperacillin."
Clinical Note
moderate30 minutes; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 20 hours in anuria).
0.6-1.2 hours in adults with normal renal function; prolonged to 2-6 hours in renal impairment (CrCl <20 mL/min); requires dose adjustment in renal failure
Renal: 70-80% unchanged by glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; Biliary/Fecal: <10% as inactive metabolites.
Renal: approximately 70-90% unchanged via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; biliary: 10-20% excreted unchanged in bile; fecal: minor (<5%)
