We aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of fosfomycin and metronidazole after intraperitoneal administration of the combination of fosfomycin and metronidazole in patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy for uncomplicated appendicitis. We included eight otherwise healthy men undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy. The trial treatment was administered at the end of the surgical procedure and left in the abdominal cavity. Trial drugs consisted of 4 g fosfomycin and 1 g metronidazole in a total volume of 500.2 mL. Blood samples were collected prior to and ½, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 h after administration. High-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry was used for the measurement of plasma concentrations, and pharmacokinetic calculations were undertaken. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was undertaken on isolates from intraoperatively collected specimens. The median maximal concentration for fosfomycin in plasma was 104.4 mg/L, median time point for the maximal concentration was 1.5 h, median half-life 3.0 h, and median area under the curve 608 mg*h/L. The median maximal concentration for metronidazole in plasma was 13.6 mg/L, median time point for the maximal concentration was 2.0 h, median half-life 7.3 h, and median area under the curve was 164 mg*h/L. All aerobic bacteria were susceptible to fosfomycin, and all anaerobes were susceptible to metronidazole. Plasma concentrations of fosfomycin and metronidazole were in line with concentrations reported from pharmacokinetic studies after intravenous administration and were within therapeutic ranges.
