Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Staphylococcus Aureus Infection Be Treated?
I ran a test and I was told that I have staph aureus which is sensitive to nitrofurantoin 4, azithromycin 2, levofloxacin, ofloxacin and resistant to augmentin, ampicillin, ceftazidime, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin Which treatment would be best for me?
I would suggest azithromycin, although it probably does not matter which one of the antibiotics you choose (of those that staph. aureus are sensitive to).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen,
General Surgeon
