General Susceptibility

Reliably susceptible to:

  • Penicillin

  •  Amoxicillin/Ampicillin

  • Vancomycin

  • Linezolid

Variably susceptible to:

  •  Fluoroquinolones

  • Tetracycline

Aminoglycosides can be used for synergy if no high-level resistance (call the microbiology lab for this data).

If urinary isolate, most are nitrofurantoin susceptible. Fosfomycin can also be used but not routinely tested, available upon request.
