Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae: In vitro Susceptibility to Fosfomycin, Nitrofurantoin and Tigecycline

Abstract

There is dissemination of CTX-M ESBL-producing urinary pathogens into the community. Fosfomycin and nitrofurantoin were active against ESBL-positive uropathogens, and emergence of tigecycline resistance needs close monitoring.
