Pseudomonas aeruginosa
General Susceptibility

General Susceptibility

Only these drugs are antipseudomonal:

  • Pip/Tazo
  • Ticar/Clav
  • Ceftazidime
  • Cefepime
  • Meropenem
  • Imipenem
  • Aztreonam
  • Ciprofloxacin
  • Aminoglycosides
  • Colistin

Variable resistance patterns with mechanisms to be resistant to all of these drugs is observed, which is why double coverage is often used prior to susceptibility results.
