Cefotaxime Acts Synergistically with Levofloxacin in Experimental Meningitis Due to Penicillin-Resistant Pneumococci and Prevents Selection of Levofloxacin-Resistant Mutants In Vitro

Cefotaxime, given in two doses (each 100 mg/kg of body weight), produced a good bactericidal activity (−0.47 Δlog(10) CFU/ml · h) which was comparable to that of levofloxacin (−0.49 Δlog(10) CFU/ml · h) against a penicillin-resistant pneumococcal strain WB4 in experimental meningitis. Cefotaxime com...
