Abstract

Serious infections by methicillin-resistant staphylococci, 26 caused by Staphylococcus aureus and two by coagulase-negative staphylococci, were treated with teicoplanin 200-800 mg daily, in eight cases supplemented with another antibiotic. The overall rate of clinical cure or improvement was 75%, and that of bacterial eradication 67%.
