Pathogens of Clinical Relevance

Bacteria – Gram-Positive Cocci

Bacteria – Gram-Positive Bacilli

  • Erysipeloid of Rosenbach (localized cutaneous infection)[1]
  • Diffuse cutaneous infection
  • Preferred regimen: As for localized infection
Note: Assess for endocarditis
  • Bacteremia or endocarditis
  • Preferred regimen: Penicillin G benzathine 2-4 MU IV q4h for 4-6 weeks
  • Alternative regimen (1): Ceftriaxone 2 g IV q24h for 4-6 weeks

  • Alternative regimen (4): Daptomycin 6 mg/kg IV q24h for 4-6 weeks
Note: Recommended duration of therapy for endocarditis is 4 to 6 weeks, although shorter courses consisting of 2 weeks of intravenous therapy followed by 2 to 4 weeks of oral therapy have been successful.
  • Systemic infection[2]

  • Oral/maintenance therapy (after infiltrate clears): Ciprofloxacin 750 mg PO twice daily OR Erythromycin 500 mg PO four times a day
  • Alternative regimen: Azithromycin OR TMP-SMX OR Chloramphenicol OR Clindamycin
  • NOTE: Avoid Penicillins/Cephalosporins due to development of resistance; Linezolid effective in vitro, but no clinical reports of use
