PITT students - last week we looked at the hospital antibiogram for E. coli across representative generation cephalosporins. Re-review that slide and use as context when reading this. #PITT_ID25
This article talks about a few of the antibiotics we discussed in class #PITT_ID25
"Consider TMP-SMX or nitrofurantoin per IDSA guidelines or a 2nd (eg, cefuroxime) or 3rd generation (eg, cefdinir or cefpodoxime) cephalosporins for empiric treatment of uUTIs. Cephalexin q6h or q8h is an appropriate and narrow choice of antibiotic IF culture and sensitivity data are available."
