Erythroderma due to aztreonam and clindamycin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 73-year-old woman developed erythroderma with intense pruritus, malaise, and chills 7 days after treatment with intravenous clindamycin. Two years later she experienced a similar reaction with more rapid onset (48 hours) after treatment with aztreonam. Resolution followed withdrawal of treatment in both instances, and intradermal tests proved positive at delayed reading for both drugs.

S fimbrial adhesins (Sfa) represent virulence factors of E. coli wild-type strains causing urinary tract infections and meningitis of the new born. In order to determine the influence of subinhibitory concentration of antibiotics on the expression of the sfa gene cluster, a wild-type strain carrying the lacZ gene, coding for the enzyme beta-galactosidase fused to the sfa determinant was used.
