Abstract
ABSTRACT
The synergistic effects of daptomycin plus gentamicin or rifampin were tested against 50
Staphylococcus aureus
strains, with daptomycin MICs ranging between 0.25 and 8 μg/ml. Daptomycin sub-MICs combined with gentamicin concentrations lower than the MIC yielded synergy in 34 (68%) of the 50 strains. Daptomycin combined with rifampin yielded synergy in one vancomycin-intermediate
S. aureus
strain only, and virtually all synergy occurred between daptomycin and gentamicin.
