Stable for 12 hours at room temperature or 24 hours refrigeratedIncompatible with dextrose solutions Compatible with solutions containing aztreonam, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, gentamicin, fluconazole, levofloxacin, dopamine, heparin and lidocaine

    OTHER INFORMATION <\/H4>May cause renal impairment Vials do not contain any bacteriostatic or fungiostatic agentsCompany advises to administer post dialysisMonitor creatinine phosphokinase levels, muscle pain or weaknessIncreased risk of myopathy in severe renal failure due to increased daptomycin levels15% of dose is removed by 4 hours of haemodialysis and 11% over 48 hours by peritoneal dialysisTherapeutic concentrations of daptomycin are unlikely due to low PD clearance of drug therefore systemic use for peritonitis is unlikely to work
