Serum drug concentration monitoring is used to guide dosing while achieving target concentrations. The aim of this report is to describe the importance of properly performed drug concentration monitoring in a patient on amikacin treatment. A 66-year-old woman with chronic renal failure was treated with amikacin for Acinetobacter infection. Initiation of amikacin loading dose of 700 mg resulted in peak drug concentration of about 24.25mg/L.Subsequent dosing was administered with random drug concentration monitoring.
