Prior antimicrobials and staphylococcal bacteremia in HIV-infected patients

Abstract: Rifabutin may be associated with diminished risk of S. aureus bacteremia incidental to use for other purposes in HIV infection. Further study is needed to assess effects on microbial resistance.

“…We do not have information on the use of prophylaxis for Pneumocystis jirovecii and atypical mycobacterial disease or the treatment of tuberculosis. Antimicrobials with activity against P. jirovecii and mycobacteria have antibacterial activity and have been shown to reduce rates of invasive bacterial disease [33–35]. Use of such drugs would lead to an underestimation of IRs in individuals with low CD4 cell counts.…”

“…The human CYP3A subfamily plays a dominant role in the metabolic elimination of many protease inhibitors; amprenavir (Decker et al, 1998), saquinavir (Eagling et al, 2002), nefinavir (Lillibridge et al, 1998), ritonavir (Kumar et al, 1996), and indinavir (Chiba et al, 1997), as well as reverse transcriptase inhibitors nevirapine (Erickson et al, 1999) and delavirdine (Voorman et al, 1998). Since Staphylococcus aureus is the most common microorganism causing cutaneous and systemic infections in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, it is possible for clindamycin to be coadministered as part of a polytherapy regimen (Styrt et al, 1997;Manfredi et al, 2002). In this light, understanding P450 enzyme interactions might allow physicians the ability to better anticipate and manage each patient's response to adding clindamycin to an established drug regimen.…”

“…Recently documented increases in community-associated methicillinresistant S. aureus (MRSA) infection suggest that there is already a reservoir of methicillin-resistant strains [1][2][3]. The use of antimicrobials as both prophylactic and therapeutic agents for opportunistic infections in HIV-infected individuals and for cutaneous infections in injection drug users may increase the likelihood of nasal carriage of antimicrobial-resistant S. aureus [4] and suggests that these groups may be "hidden" contributors to a community-based reservoir.…”
