aztreonam and Klebsiella Infections

aztreonam has been researched along with Klebsiella Infections in 41 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.

Klebsiella Infections: Infections with bacteria of the genus KLEBSIELLA.

( Adler, AL; Elward, A; Haaland, W; Kronman, MP; Miles-Jay, A; Newland, JG; Qin, X; Weissman, SJ; Zaoutis, T; Zerr, DM; Zhou, C, 2016)
" A humanized aztreonam dose of 2 g every 6 h (1-h infusion) was evaluated alone and in combination with avibactam at 375 or 600 mg every 6 h (1-h infusion), targeting the percentage of the dosing interval in which free-drug concentrations remained above the MIC (fT>MIC)."1.39Human simulated studies of aztreonam and aztreonam-avibactam to evaluate activity against challenging gram-negative organisms, including metallo-β-lactamase producers. ( Crandon, JL; Nicolau, DP, 2013)
"A total of 143 patients with nosocomial infections due to K."1.33Nosocomial infection with cephalosporin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is not associated with increased mortality. ( Gomes, CC; Levin, AS; Santos, CR; Vormittag, E, 2006)
"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)
"When chloramphenicol was added before the beta-lactams, the action of cefotaxime, moxalactam, or cefoperazone against all isolates was antagonized at all times tested."1.27Antagonism by chloramphenicol of broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotics against Klebsiella pneumoniae. ( Alford, RH; Brown, TH, 1984)
"Aztreonam is a novel antimicrobial agent belonging to the monobactam class of antibiotics."1.27Use of aztreonam in the treatment of serious infections due to multiresistant gram-negative organisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. ( Neu, HC; Scully, BE, 1985)
