Macrolides and S. pneumoniae Lack of correlation in vitro/in vivo
- Different mechanism of resistance
- Relation between mechanism of R and
bacterial eradication
- Redefinition of susceptibility and
resistance:
– Moving breakpoints to reflect 2 mechanisms – Use of a surrogate such as clindamycin

Pneumococcal macrolide resistance: myth or reality?
- Provide the clinicians MIC data
- Compare MICs with in vivo pharmacokinetics
and pharmocodinamics
- Provide MICs of different macrolides
(erythromycin and azalides)
- Review MIC breakpoints according to site of
infection
- New clinical breakpoints for intravenous
formulations.

Macrolide resistance Macrolide resistance in in S.
- S. pyogenes
pyogenes. . Clinical Clinical significance significance?: No ?: No
- Macrolide treatment of pharyngitis accounts
for a low proportion of the overall use
- Pharyngitis by S. pyogenes is a mild, self
limiting disease
- The prevalent phenotypes are endowed with
low resistance level (M) versus high tissue concentration
- C16 macrolides and ketolides may still be
effective.
Macrolide resistance Macrolide resistance in in S.
- S. pyogenes
pyogenes. . Clinical Clinical significance significance?: ?: Yes Yes
- Increase in severe infections: necrotising
fasciitis, STSS
- Role of low level resistance
- Role of C16 macrolides and ketolides.
- In vitro susceptibility and outcome of infection
- Spread of macrolide resistance to other species
