Abstract:
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro activity of Ciprofloxacin(CIP)or Amikacin(AK)combined with four clinically-used antipseudomonas ?-lactams against multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.Methods Determining the MICs of six antibiotics to 35 clinically isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains which have different resistance patterns by 2-fold broth dilution method;determining the in vitro activity of Ciprofloxacin or Amikacin combined with Ceftazidime(CAZ),Imipenem(IMP),Meropenem(MEM)and Piperacillin/Tazobactam(TZP)by broth checkerboard method.Results The combinations of Ciprofloxacin or Amikacin with four ?-lactams have mainly synergistic or additive effect,the synergistic rate of AK-group(AK+CAZ:71.43%;AK+IMP:42.86%;AK+MEM:54.29%;AK+TZP:85.71%)was higher than that of CIP-group(CIP+CAZ:20%;CIP+IMP:25.71%;CIP+MEM:14.29%;CIP+TZP:31.43%).The combination of CIP+TZP has the highest synergistic rate in CIP-group;the combination of AK+TZP has the highest synergistic rate in AK-group.None of the combinations had an antagonistic effect.Conclusion the combination of ciprofloxacin or amikacin with ?-lactams have good in vitro activity to multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.
