ABSTRACT
Introduction: Antibacterial resistance is a growing phenomenon characterized by the partial
or total refractoriness of microorganisms to antibiotic effect, which causes ineffective
treatments and increases the risk of spreading resistant pathogens.
Objective: To evaluate in vitro pharmacodynamic interaction between combinations of
linezolid, vancomycin, daptomycin and tigecycline against clinical isolates of methicillinresistant
Staphylococcus aureus from patients at a local hospital in Cartagena de Indias.
Methods: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates were recovered from sputum,
blood, and urine samples from patients at the University Hospital of the Caribbean. The
isolates were confronted to the combinations linezolid-vancomycin, linezolid-daptomycin,
linezolid-tigecycline, vancomycin-tigecycline, vancomycin-daptomycin, and daptomycintigecycline.
To evaluate the activity of these combinations, the minimum inhibitory
concentration and the fractional inhibitory concentration were determined using a broth
microdilution checkerboard method.
Results: The tigecycline-daptomycin combination was shown to present in vitro synergism
in 93.8% of cases and was confronted to different clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolates.
The vancomycin-tigecycline combination showed antagonism in 43.8% of the trials and
indifference in 38%. Other combinations, such as vancomycin-daptomycin, linezoliddaptomycin,
linezolid-vancomycin and linezolid-tigecycline, had a pharmacodynamic
behavior in which indifference prevailed.
Conclusions: The tigecycline-daptomycin combination presents better in vitro antibacterial
synergism against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which makes it a promising
alternative against infections caused by this pathogen. The vancomycin-tigecycline
combination shows pharmacological antagonism, so it should not be used in vivo.
