aztreonam and Group A Strep Infection

aztreonam has been researched along with Group A Strep Infection in 5 studies

Aztreonam: A monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotic originally isolated from Chromobacterium violaceum. It is resistant to beta-lactamases and is used in gram-negative infections, especially of the meninges, bladder, and kidneys. It may cause a superinfection with gram-positive organisms.
aztreonam : A synthetic monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotic (monobactam), used primarily to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria. It inhibits mucopeptide synthesis in the bacterial cell wall, thereby blocking peptidoglycan crosslinking.

"Linezolid therapy was associated with improved clinical outcomes and significantly lower treatment costs than was vancomycin."2.72Impact of linezolid on economic outcomes and determinants of cost in a clinical trial evaluating patients with MRSA complicated skin and soft-tissue infections. ( Itani, KM; Liu, LZ; McKinnon, PS; Sorensen, SV, 2006)
"While group C beta hemolytic streptococcal infections are uncommon in humans, group C beta hemolytic streptococcal pneumonia is exceedingly rare."1.38Necrotizing pneumonia caused by group C streptococci in a young adult. ( Hurtado Rendon, IS; Pathak, V; Smina, M, 2012)
"In addition, combined treatments of bacterial infections should allow for a reduction in dosages of antibiotics while at the same time, achieving increased efficacy."1.28Potentiation by nonspecific immunostimulation of the efficacy of antibiotics in the treatment of experimental bacterial infections. ( Bizzini, B; Fattal-German, M, 1989)
