Possible clinical indications of ceftobiprole
2019
Ceftobiprole is a fifth-generation cephalosporin approved
for the treatment of adult community-acquired pneumonia
and non-ventilator associated hospital-acquired pneumonia.
However, its microbiological and pharmacokinetic profile is
very attractive as armamentarium for empirical monotherapy
treatment in other infections too. Among these, the following
scenarios could be considered complicated skin and soft tissue
infections, moderate-severe diabetic foot infections without
bone involvement, vascular-catheter-associated-bloodstream
infections, and fever without apparent focus in the hospitalized
patient without septic shock or profound immunosuppression.
