In Vivo Emergence of Dual Resistance to Rifampin and Levofloxacin in Osteoarticular Cutibacterium avidum

In Vivo Emergence of Dual Resistance to Rifampin and Levofloxacin in Osteoarticular Cutibacterium avidum

ABSTRACT Cutibacterium avidum is an emerging causative agent of orthopedic device-related infections (ODRIs). There are no guidelines for the antimicrobial treatment of C. avidum ODRI, but oral rifampin is frequently used in combination with a fluoroquinolone following intravenous antibiotics. We de...
