Clindamycin is a lincosamide antibiotic which is approved for the treatment of Anaerobic, Streptococcal and Staphylococcal infections. There has been an increased interest in the use of clindamycin since it achieves high intracellular levels in phagocytic cells, high levels in bone and appears to have an antitoxin effect against the toxin elaborating strains of streptococci and staphylococci. C...
In staphylococci, inducible macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B (MLS(B)) resistance is conferred by the erm(C) or erm(A) gene. This phenotype is characterized by the erythromycin-clindamycin "D-zone" test. Although clindamycin appears active in vitro, exposure of MLS(B)-inducible Staphylococcus aureus to this antibiotic may result in the selection of clindamycin-resistant mutants, either in v...
BACKGROUND Artemisinin-based drug combinations are the mainstay in the fight against drug-resistant malaria in Africa. Currently available antimalarial drug combinations that include artemisinins are pharmacokinetically unmatched and are therefore potentially increasing the risk of selection of resistant mutants in areas in which the rate of transmission of malaria is high. We tested the potent...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Staphylococcus aureus is an important agent in hospital and community-associated infections, causing high morbidity and mortality. Introduction of the new antimicrobial classes for this pathogen has been usually followed by the emergence of resistant strains through multiple mechanisms. For instance, resistance to clindamycin (CLI)can be constitutive or inducible. Indu...
A clinical isolate of Streptococcus pyogenes UCN1 intermediate to erythromycin (MIC 1 mg/L) and susceptible to clindamycin (MIC 0.03 mg/L) harboured an inducible erm(TR) gene encoding a ribosomal methylase. We have selected in vitro, in the presence of concentrations of clindamycin ranging from 0.12 to 1 mg/L, one-step mutants that are highly resistant to this antibiotic (MIC 64 mg/L) at a freq...

Increased rates of erythromycin resistance among group B Streptococcus (GBS) and group A Streptococcus (GAS) have been reported. Cross-resistance to clindamycin may be present, depending on the mechanism of resistance. We determined the prevalence of macrolide-resistant determinants in GBS and GAS isolates to guide the laboratory reporting of erythromycin and clindamycin susceptibility. Suscept...
Gentamicin was measured in the presence of clindamycin by using as the assay organism a strain of Staphylococcus aureus that was resistant to clindamycin; clindamycin was measured in the presence of gentamicin by using Clostridium perfringens as the assay organism. Both assays were in agar diffusion systems, were rapid (2 to 4 h), and had errors of less than 10%. Neither antibiotic antagonized ...
Prevalence of inducible clindamycin resistance in gram positive organisms in a tertiary care centre.
Gram positive organisms are one of the leading pathogens causing skin and soft tissue infections. For these infections, clindamycin is a useful alternate drug in penicillin-allergic patients. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of erythromycin-induced clindamycin resistance in gram positive organisms in the southern part of the country. A total of 522 consecutive clinical iso...
Acne vulgaris is a common and chronic skin disease, and is a frequent source of morbidity for affected patients. Treatment of acne vulgaris is often difficult due to the multifactorial nature of this disease. Combination therapy, such as that containing clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide, has become the standard of care. Several fixed formulations of clindamycin 1% and benzoyl peroxide of varying...
