Compared to amoxicillin alone, it has better anti
Identify the antimicrobial coverage of amoxicillin-clavulanate based on its mechanism of action
The antimicrobials potentially effective against anaerobic bacteria include beta-lactams, combinations of beta-lactams and beta-lactamase inhibitors, metronidazole
Alerting the provider that the antibiotics ordered have overlapping spectra of activity

These medications should be prioritized as key targets for antibiotic stewardship
Regional susceptibility patterns
25)
The SPICE-A organisms (Serratia, Pseudomonas/Providencia, Indole-positive Proteus, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, and Acinetobacter) have inducible, chromosomal beta
fragilis is suspected: most resistance is due to beta-lactamase production
6 mcg
Seawater exposure: doxycycline (100 mg twice daily) for coverage of Vibrio species Soil-contaminated wound or exposure to sewage-contaminated water: metronidazole (500 mg four times daily) for anaerobic coverage
Similar to third-generation quinolones but with improved gram-positive coverage and added anaerobic coverage: Because of their extensive gram-negative coverage, quinolone antibiotics were Ampicillin-sulbactam (Unasyn) is the combination of aminopenicillin ampicillin plus beta-lactamase inhibitor sulbactam

However, all Leptotrichia isolates were resistant to moxifloxacin (MIC=8–16 µg/mL)
Amoxicillin
Thus the use of low dose amoxicillin-clavulanate in combination with meropenem may be used in part of treatment regime for drug resistant TB and this A combination with an aminoglycoside plus metronidazoleor clindamycin will give an optimal coverage for the aerobic and anaerobic bacteria involved
One single center retrospective analysis isolated Candida and Aspergillus species from 65 critically ill patients w/ variable comorbidities, including malignancy
Symptoms may include edema, pain, gas with crepitation, foul-smelling exudates, intense coloration of the site, and progression to shock, renal failure, and sometimes death
if specific pathogens are known, treatment should be targeted to those pathogens
The epidemiology, microbiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment of gram-negative bacillary bacteremia will be reviewed here
