Although the resistance characteristics of these two species differ in important ways, they can generally be categorized as intrinsic Feb 11, 2024 · However, the efficacy of nitrofurantoin in treating clinical infections due to these microorganisms has not been established in adequate and well-controlled trials

Nitrofurantoin is an effective antimicrobial in vitro and can be used for treatment of Enterococcus urinary tract infections
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterococcus faecium is an important nosocomial pathogen causing urinary tract infection, and the reapplication of nitrofurantoin (NIT) in
Enterococcus faecalis (E
Background and Objectives
For patients with PCN E
Nitrofurantoin is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, active against the majority of urinary pathogens
Staphylococcus Species, e
Epidermidis Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic medication that is used for the treatment of uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections
coli was considered the main cause of CBP, but recent studies show that gram-positive bacteria, especially Enterococcus faecalis, have replaced E
Even though E
Escherichia coli causes approximately 75% of recurrent UTIs; most other infections are caused by Enterococcus faecalis, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella, or Staphylococcus saprophyticus
An efficacy ratio of ≥8 for nitrofurantoin was observed in the 39 (76
faecium isolates as against the 50 (98%) E
At least 90 percent of the following microorganisms exhibit an in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) less than or equal to the susceptible breakpoint for nitrofurantoin

Conclusion
The significant association of gelE, asa1, and esp virulence genes with drug resistance could
Further pathogens involved in acute infections include Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Enterococcus faecalis, group B Streptococcus (GBS), Proteus mirabilis, Patients treated with nitrofurantoin (n = 934) achieved an overall microbiological response of 76
