[Fosfomycin-cefotaxime combination in severe staphylococcal infections in newborn infants]. 1985

J B Gouyon, and J M Duez, and H Portier, and P Brichon, and E Kohli, and M Alison

Clinical and bacteriological effectiveness of the fosfomycin-cefotaxime combination is reported in four cases of serious staphylococcal infections in neonates (1 meningitis, 2 osteomyelitis, 1 superinfection of congenital varicella). Owing to the strong synergistic effect of this combination on methicillin-resistant staphylococcal strains, the authors suggest that the fosfomycin-cefotaxime combination should be considered for anti-staphylococcal therapy in neonates with deep tissue and/or methicillin-resistant infections.
