Daptomycin is highly efficacious against penicillin-resistant and penicillin- and quinolone-resistant pneumococci in experimental meningitis.
The penetration of daptomycin, a new lipopeptide antibiotic, into inflamed meninges ranged between 4.37 and 7.53% (mean, 5.97%). Daptomycin was very efficacious in the treatment of experimental pneumococcal meningitis, producing a decrease of -1.20 +/- 0.32 Deltalog(10) CFU/ml. h in the bacterial titer of Streptococcus pneumoniae against a penicillin-resistant strain and of -0.97 +/- 0.32 Delta...
متن کاملEfficacies of BMS 284756 against penicillin-sensitive, penicillin-resistant, and quinolone-resistant pneumococci in experimental meningitis.
BMS 284756 penetrated well into inflamed meninges (44% +/- 11%) and produced good bactericidal activity (-0.82 +/- 0.22 Delta log(10) CFU/ml. h) in the treatment of experimental meningitis in rabbits due to a penicillin-sensitive strain. BMS 284756 monotherapy had a greater potency than the standard regimen of ceftriaxone and vancomycin (-0.49 +/- 0.08 Delta log(10) CFU/ml. h) against a penicil...
متن کاملGemifloxacin is efficacious against penicillin-resistant and quinolone-resistant pneumococci in experimental meningitis.
In experimental rabbit meningitis, gemifloxacin penetrated inflamed meninges well (22 to 33%) and produced excellent bactericidal activity (change in log(10) [Deltalog(10)] CFU/ml/h, -0.68 +/- 0.30 [mean and standard deviation]), even superior to that of the standard regimen of ceftriaxone plus vancomycin (-0.49 +/- 0.09 deltalog(10) CFU/ml/h), in the treatment of meningitis due to a penicillin...
متن کاملGentamicin increases the efficacy of vancomycin against penicillin-resistant pneumococci in the rabbit meningitis model.
In experimental meningitis a single dose of gentamicin (10 mg/kg of body weight) led to gentamicin levels in around cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 4 mg/liter for 4 h, decreasing slowly to 2 mg/liter 4 h later. The CSF penetration of gentamicin ranged around 27%, calculated by comparison of areas under the curve (AUC in serum/AUC in CSF). Gentamicin monotherapy (-1.24 log(10) CFU/ml) was inferior ...
متن کاملTrovafloxacin in combination with vancomycin against penicillin-resistant pneumococci in the rabbit meningitis model.
Trovafloxacin, a new fluoroquinolone, produced bactericidal activity (-0.33 +/- 0.13 delta log10 CFU/ml.h; intravenously [i.v.] administered dose, 15 mg/kg) comparable to that of vancomycin (-0.39 +/- 0.18 delta log10 CFU/ml.h; i.v. admininistered dose, 20 mg/kg) in the treatment of experimental meningitis in rabbits due to a pneumococcal strain highly resistant to penicillin (MIC of penicillin...
