Multidrug Resistance in Infants and Children

Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria.

Emergence of trimethoprim resistance in fecal flora.

The emergence of trimethoprim (TMP) resistance in fecal flora was compared in patients with urinary tract infection treated with TMP or TMP-sulfamethoxazole. No significant differences were found in the occurrence of TMP-resistant fecal aerobic bacteria in the two treatment groups before and after treatment.

Has the emergence of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus increased trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole use and resistance?: a 10-year time series analysis.

There are an increasing number of indications for trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole use, including skin and soft tissue infections due to community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA). Assessing the relationship between rates of use and antibiotic resistance is important for maintaining the expected efficacy of this drug for guideline-recommended conditions. Using inter...
