The in-vitro activity of quinupristin-dalfopristin was compared with those
of vancomycin, teicoplanin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, rifampicin,
imipenem, meropenem, ciprofloxacin and sparfloxacin against 414 bloodstream
isolates of Gram-positive cocci. Quinupristin- dalfopristin inhibited
strains of Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus agalactiae at 0.12
mg/L, methicillin- and/or erythromycin- resistant Staphylococcus aureus and
Staphylococcus epidermidis at 0.5 mg/L, Staphylococcus haemolyticus,
Enterococcus faecium, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus mitis,
Streptococcus bovis, Streptococcus sanguis and Streptococcus anginosus at 1
mg/L and Enterococcus faecalis at 8 mg/L.
