Title:
ANTI-INFECTIVE AGENTS USEFUL AGAINST MULTIDRUG-RESISTANT STRAINS OF BACTERIA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001063539
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel methods for using macrolide anti-infective agents. The macrolide anti-infective agents demonstrate antibacterial activity against multi-drug resistant strains of bacteria and, in particular, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Methods for inhibiting the activity of multi-drug resistant bacterial organisms and methods for treating a bacterial infection caused by such organisms are described herein.
