Do Aminopenicillins Have a Role in Treating Ampicillin-Resistant Enterococcus UTIs?
Urinary tract infections caused by Enterococcus species are a frequent clinical challenge. The rising prevalence of ampicillin resistance often seemingly precludes the use of aminopenicillins. However, evidence suggests that aminopenicillins may retain clinical efficacy, even when susceptibility testing indicates resistance. Integrating available pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and clinical data and risk-benefit considerations, we seek to address the question: Can aminopenicillins still be a viable treatment option in the management of ampicillin-resistant Enterococcus infections?
期刊介绍:
Open Forum Infectious Diseases provides a global forum for the publication of clinical, translational, and basic research findings in a fully open access, online journal environment. The journal reflects the broad diversity of the field of infectious diseases, and focuses on the intersection of biomedical science and clinical practice, with a particular emphasis on knowledge that holds the potential to improve patient care in populations around the world. Fully peer-reviewed, OFID supports the international community of infectious diseases experts by providing a venue for articles that further the understanding of all aspects of infectious diseases.
