Treatment of C. striatum invasive infections in a slightly higher number of patients (44/53%) was composed of a monotherapeutic antibiotic approach, while a combination of two or more antibiotics was used for the treatment of 39 patients (47%).

Antibiotics are the treatment of choice for nondiphtherial corynebacteria infections. Many species and groups are sensitive to various antibiotics, including penicillins, macrolide...

2021年6月18日 · Vancomycin should be used as the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of C. striatum infections, in monotherapy or in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam. Alternatively, linezolid, teicoplanin or daptomycin may be used in severe infections, while amoxicillin-clavulanate may be used to treat mild infections caused by C. striatum.

2024年7月20日 · Explore the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment options for Corynebacterium UTIs, including antibiotic resistance challenges. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common health complications affecting millions worldwide, often caused by various bacterial pathogens.

The susceptibilities of 265 strains of Corynebacterium species and other non-spore-forming gram-positive bacilli to 18 antimicrobial agents were tested. Most strains were susceptible to vancomycin, doxycycline, and fusidic acid.

2023年6月22日 · The clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of diphtheria will be reviewed here. The epidemiology, pathophysiology, and prevention of this infection are discussed separately.

2025年1月14日 · Addressing infections caused by Corynebacterium amycolatum requires a strategic approach, given its resistance patterns. Treatment decisions are informed by antimicrobial susceptibility testing, guiding clinicians in selecting effective antibiotics.

2021年6月18日 · Vancomycin should be used as the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of C. striatum infections, in monotherapy or in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam. Alternatively, linezolid,...

2024年8月17日 · Today, the more common scenario is nondiphtherial corynebacterial bacteremia associated with device infections (venous access catheters, heart valves, neurosurgical shunts, peritoneal...

Treatment for Corynebacterium infections depends on the specific species and the severity of the infection. Diphtheria is treated with antitoxin to neutralize the toxin produced by the bacteria, along with antibiotics such as penicillin or erythromycin to eradicate the bacteria.
