Bacteroides fragilis resistant to the administration of clindamycin

Bacteroides fragilis resistant to the administration of clindamycin

J S Salaki et al. Am J Med. 1976 Mar.

Abstract

The susceptibility of Bacteroides fragilis to the administration of clindamycin, and the efficacy of this agent in Bacteroides infections are well documented. Clindamycin-resistant strains of B. fragilis were isolated from two patients with bacteremia at two institutions. Clinically significant resistance to clindamycin therapy has not been noted previously in B. fragilis infections.
