Abstract
Aztreonam is a synthetic monobactam antibiotic that has excellent activity against aerobic gram-negative bacilli. It can be used as a single agent for the treatment of upper urinary tract infections caused by organisms resistant to the cephalosporins and ampicillin. It also can be administered in combination with a drug such as clindamycin for treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease or postoperative pelvic infections.
