Bacteremia and meningitis caused by penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 35B successfully treated with ceftriaxone combined with vancomycin followed by linezolid: A case report.
We herein report a case of bacterial meningitis and bacteremia in a 3-month-old boy caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 35B multidrug resistance. Intravenous ampicillin was administered on admission. However, when pneumococcal meningitis was suspected, the antibiotic treatment was changed to ceftriaxone (CTRX) and vancomycin (VCM). However, owing to difficulties in achieving sufficient serum trough levels of VCM, this treatment was again switched to linezolid (LZD). The patient recovered without complications after 16 days of CTRX and LZD treatment. This case suggests that LZD is a viable treatment option for bacterial meningitis.
