Principles of antimicrobial therapy

Drug

HostMicrobe

Name of the diseaseEtiological agent (s)Signs and symptoms Treatment (drug of choice and one alternative drug)

Skin Normal Flora

• Mostly gram-positive bacteria– staphylococci– micrococci– corynebacteria (diphtheroids)– Propionibacterium acnes

• Vigorous washing reduces but does not completely eliminate

• Sweat glands and hair follicles help to reestablish bacterial flora

S. aureus

impetigo

Ecthyma

Cellulitis

Panniculitis

Necrotizing fasciitis

Erysipelas

Folliculitis: infection of hair follicle (S. aureus)

Impetigo (S. pyogenes, S. aureus)

Furuncle: deep inflammatory nodule usually developing from folliculitis (S. aureus)

Carbuncle: more extensive than a furuncle with involvement of the subcutaneous fat (S. aureus)

Skin and soft tissue

IDSA 2005

• better oral absorption (53.7% and 32.9%, respectively)

• slower (renal and extra-renal) elimination (T1/2 : 46 and 32 min, respectively).

• high risk of cholestatic hepatitis

PhenoxymethylpenicillinCloxacillin Dicloxacillin

Flucloxacillin

PHP 32

Similar profile : • Comparable bioavailability after oral

administration dicloxacillin /cloxacillin (48.8% and 36.9%)

• The elimination rate was similar the urinary recovery of active dicloxacillin was higher in young subjects and that the non-renal

clearance was higher in elderly volunteers.- Dicloxacillin: risk of thrombophlebitis

Scalded skin syndrome (S. aureus)

Common Antibiotics for skin and soft tissue infections

Nafcillin• resistant to inactivation by the enzyme penicillinase (beta-

lactamase).• relatively acid-stable and have reasonable bioavailability.• The peak OX levels in serum were at least twice the peak NAF

level, but the half-life of NAF in the serum (2.1 hours) was about twice that of OX (1.1 hours).

• Nafcillin is associated with neutropenia; oxacillin can cause hepatitis

Soft Tissue Infections• Myositis

– infection of skeletal muscle (rare)– S. aureus, S. pyogenes (rare), mixed organism

Soft Tissue Infections• Necrotizing fasciitis

– “flesh-eating disease”– sever infection involving the

subcutaneous soft tissue, particularly the superficial and deep fascia

– predisposing conditions: diabetes, abdominal surgery, perineal infection, trauma

– organisms: S. pyogenes, C. perfringens, mixed aerobic and anaerobic bacteria

– treatment surgical debridement, antibiotics, + immunoglobulins

Gas gangrenerapidly progressive, life-threatening, toxemic infection of skeletal muscle due to clostridia

Antibiotics for MRSA

Why are MRSA important?

MRSA: Strains that are oxacillin and methicillin resistant, historically termed methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), are resistant to all ß-lactam agents, including cephalosporins and carbapenems.

• Pathogenicity. MRSA have many virulence factors that enable them to cause disease in normal hosts.

• Limited treatment options.Vancomycin and two newer antimicrobial agents, linezolid and daptomycin, are among the drugs that are used for treatment of severe healthcare-associated MRSA infections.

• MRSA are transmissible.CDC

Linezolid :Initiation Factors

30S ribosome

mRNA50S

ribosome

30S + mRNA

fMet - tRNA

Elongation Factors

70S Initiation Complex

Peptide Product

Elongation

AminoglycosidesMacrolides Streptogramins

Linezolid blocks formation of the

initiation complex

Prevents bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 23S ribosomal RNA of 50S subunit

LinezolidUse:• Works against aerobic gram-positive organisms• Infections caused by MRSA/VREPdynamics:• Linezolid is administered by intravenous infusion or orally

(100% oral bioavailability)• have significant penetration into bone, fat, muscle, and

hematoma fluid • metabolism is non-enzymatic and does not involve CYP450;

Non-renal clearance accounts for 65% of an administered linezolid dosage (no adjustment in renal failure)

Safety of Linezolid

• common adverse events in children are diarrhea, vomiting, loose

stools, and nausea• Toxicity: Duration-dependent bone marrow suppression,

Thrombocytopenia is the most common manifestation, • non-selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase (MAO)

=neuropathy, and optic neuritis serotonin-syndrome may occur when coadministered with other serotonergic drugs (eg, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors); lactic acidosis

Daptomycin

• Daptomycin is a lipopeptide class antibiotic that disrupts cell membrane function via calcium-

dependent binding, resulting in bactericidal activity in a concentration-dependent fashion.

It is a naturally-occurring compound found in the soil microbe Streptomyces roseosporus.

Lipopeptides• treatment of complicated skin

and soft tissue infections due to gram-positive bacteria (but not anaerobes)

• Bacteriocidal against multidrug-resistant, gram-positive bacteria

• Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

• Vancomycin-resistant enterococci

• Glycopeptide-intermediate and -resistant S. aureus.

• Penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae

Daptomycin

• Post antibiotic effect• Once daily dosing• ElevationsAdv events:

in creatinine phosphokinase (CPK), rarely treatment limitingmuscle pain or weakness; daptomycin-induced eosinophilic pneumonia have been described

Excreted mainly through kidneys

Bone Infections

• Septic arthritis– infection of joint spaces– hematogenous or contiguous– S. aureus, Streptococcus spp., Gram-negative bacilli

• Osteomyelitis– infection of the bone– hematogenous or contiguous– S. aureus, S. pyogenes, H. influenzae, Gram-negative bacilli

warmth Purulent exudate Systemic

Initial empirical antibiotic choice in suspected septic arthritis

Patient group Antibiotic choice

No risk factors for atypical organisms Penicillin 3-4 u IV q 8 (pen sensitive)Nafcillin or oxacillin 2 g IV q 4hFlucloxacillin 2 g qds i.v. Local policy may be to

add gentamicin i.v.If penicillin allergic, clindamycin 450–600 mg qds i.v. or 2nd or 3rd generation cephalosporin (Cefazolin 1 g q 8)

High risk of Gram-negative sepsis (elderly, frail, recurrent UTI, and recent abdominal surgery)

2nd or 3rd generation cephalosporin eg cefuroxime 1.5 g tds i.v. Local policy may be to add flucloxacillin i.v. to 3rd generation cephalosporin. Discuss allergic patients with microbiology—Gram stain may influence antibiotic choice

MRSA risk (known MRSA, recent inpatient, nursing home resident, leg ulcers or catheters, or other risk factors determined locally)

Vancomycin i.v. plus 2nd or 3rd generation cephalosporin i.v.

Suspected gonococcus or meningococcus Ceftriaxone i.v. or similar dependent on local policy or resistance

Pseudomonas Extended B lactam: Piperacillin 3-4g Ivq 4-6h; Ceftazidime 2 g IV q 12h

• Duration of treatment– Hematogenous 4-6 weeks– Contiguous focus 2 wks after debridement– Chronic 4-6 wks

Diabetic foot infection

Management

• Surgical debridement (may not be necessary in children)

• Antibiotics for 4-6 weeks (at least 2wks IV)– multiple courses may be necessary
