Activity of Fusidic Acid Tested against Staphylococci Isolated from Patients in U.S. Medical Centers in 2014.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Jun 2016

Farrell David J, Mendes Rodrigo E, Castanheira Mariana, Jones Ronald N

Abstract excerpt

Fusidic acid (FA) activity was evaluated against 2,002 clinical staphylococcal isolates collected in U.S. hospitals during 2014. FA (MIC50/90, 0.12/0.12 μg/ml) inhibited 99.8% of Staphylococcus aureus isolates at ≤1 μg/ml. Only four S. aureus isolates displayed FA values of >2 μg/ml (three strains with fusC and one with an L461K substitution in fusA), and they were isolated from patients in four states. In...
