Failure of time-kill synergy studies using subinhibitory antimicrobial concentrations to predict in vivo antagonism of cephalosporin-rifampin combinations against Staphylococcus aureus. Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 1994, Volume: 38, Issue:9 Results of in vitro time-kill synergy studies using subinhibitory, inhibitory, or suprainhibitory concentrations of bactericidal agents were compared with treatment outcomes of experimental infective endocarditis due to a methicillin-susceptible strain of Staphylococcus aureus. For rifampin-cephalosporin combinations, in vitro synergy testing using recommended fractions of the MIC failed to predict antagonism in vivo while concentrations above the MIC corresponded with antagonism in vivo. Topics: Animals; Cefazolin; Cefpirome; Cephalosporins; Disease Models, Animal; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Drug Synergism; Drug Therapy, Combination; Endocarditis, Bacterial; Gentamicins; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Nafcillin; Predictive Value of Tests; Rabbits; Rifampin; Staphylococcal Infections; Staphylococcus aureus; Time Factors	1994
Conditions for the emergence of resistance to cefpirome and ceftazidime in experimental endocarditis due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy, 1994, Volume: 33, Issue:3 The conditions for the emergence of resistance to cefpirome and ceftazidime were studied in rabbits with experimental aortic endocarditis due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The MIC of cefpirome was 16 mg/L and that of ceftazidime was 4 mg/L. Resistant mutants with MICs of > or = 64 mg/L were obtained in vitro to cefpirome after a single passage and to ceftazidime after five passages. A single dose of 50 mg/kg intramuscularly gave mean peak serum concentrations of 110.0 +/- 31.7 mg/L for cefpirome compared with 67.7 +/- 21.4 mg/L for ceftazidime and the half-lives were 1.2 +/- 0.1 h and 2.1 +/- 0.4 h, respectively. After treating infected rabbits for 4 days with various dosing regimens, resistant strains were only detected in those animals in which the time that the serum concentration exceeded the MIC was less than half of the dosing interval. There was no evidence of emergent resistance when the serum concentrations exceeded the MIC for a longer period nor when amikican was combined with the cephalosporins on the first day of therapy. Moreover, once differences in MICs and pharmacokinetics were taken into account, both antibiotics had a similar propensity to induce resistance.
