“…The favorable blood/bone ratio [11] and the high bioavailability of moxifloxacin and rifampicin also allow a short initial intravenous treatment; median duration was 14 days in our series. The combination of moxifloxacin and rifampicin has already been used in staphylococcal prosthetic joint infection and the success rate was not different than that reported with the levofloxacin-rifampicin combination in a recent retrospective study [12]. In our series, the seven cases of co-infection with S. aureus were associated with favorable outcomes.…”

“…However, reduction of moxifloxacin plasma concentration has been reported in patients treated with rifampicin and isoniazid for tuberculosis [13]. The clinical relevance of this interaction is still debated [12,14] and extrapolation to nontuberculosis patients has to be confirmed.…”

“…The reduction of serum levels of antibiotics induced by rifampin is not always clinically relevant and depends on the intrinsic activity of the antibiotic, the degree of reduction and the dosage of the co-antibiotic administered. This is supported by the high success rate of moxifloxacin combination therapy [ 26 ], an antibiotic that is also affected by rifampin [ 27 , 28 ]. In concordance with the study of Tornero et al, cotrimoxazole showed the highest treatment failure in our analysis.…”

“…However, in these cases, rifampin should not be administered. In several observational studies over the following years, the success rate in patients with PJI treated with a defined duration of rifampin combination therapy ranged between 55% and 100% (61,64,66,(68)(69)(70)(71)(72)(73)(74)(75)(76)(77)(78)(79)(80)(81)(82)(83)(84). This wide range still triggers the discussion on the divergence of outcome results.…”

“…However, since levofloxacin has a low MIC against staphylococci, many observational studies have been performed with levofloxacin as combination partner (72,79,96). Recently, Wouthuyzen-Bakker et al (74) showed that the success rates in patients with early acute PJI caused by MSSA and treated with DAIR were similar with moxifloxacin/rifampin and levofloxacin/rifampin (89% versus 87.5%).…”
