Ceftaroline fosamil in the treatment of experimental meningitis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

2020-04-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Meningitis caused by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is rare and often fatal. The recommended treatment for MRSA meningitis, vancomycin, is limited by poor cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) penetration. Ceftaroline fosamil is a novel fifth-generation cephalosporin with potent antibacterial activity in vitro against MRSA. Several case reports in humans suggest that ceftaroline might...
