Comparative In Vitro Killing Activities of Meropenem, Imipenem, Ceftriaxone, and Ceftriaxone plus Vancomycin at Clinically Achievable Cerebrospinal Fluid Concentrations against Penicillin-Resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae Isolates from Children with Meningitis

The activities of meropenem, imipenem, ceftriaxone, and vancomycin were evaluated against 80 penicillin-susceptible and -resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae strains. Meropenem, imipenem, ceftriaxone, and vancomycin MICs at which 90% of the isolates are inhibited were 0.5, 0.25, 1, and 0.25 μg/ml, res...
