Research paper thumbnail of Activity of daptomycin against multi-resistant Gram-positive bacteria including enterococci and Staphylococcus aureus resistant to linezolid

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2004

The activity of daptomycin against 141 Staphylococcus aureus and 63 Streptococcus agalactiae isol... more The activity of daptomycin against 141 Staphylococcus aureus and 63 Streptococcus agalactiae isolates was assessed. The isolates were previously characterized and showed resistance to the antibiotics normally used against grampositive cocci. Daptomycin was active against 100% of the isolates (minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC 90 ] ¼ 0.5 mg=ml, for both species). This antibiotic shows good in vitro activity; therefore, it is an excellent therapeutic alternative against these isolates.
