ABSTRACT
The occurence of pharmacokinetic drug-to-drug interactions is the serious clinical problem in the course of pharmacotherapy of infections. Its essential part is the influence of such interactions on the effectiveness and safety of antimicrobial therapy. The aim of study was to present, the most significant on clinical hand, examples of interactions and their mechanisms between antimicrobial agents and other drugs on stages of absorption, distribution, biotransformation and elimination, leading to the decreased antimicrobial activity and ineffective pharmacotherapy or to the increased antimicrobial activity and to the increased risk of adverse effects due to agents used for anti-infectious pharmacotherapy.
