ABSTRACT
Introduction: Nowadays, the constant increase of microbial resistance is a global problem; this has led many countries to develop national control plans and many researchers to design new therapeutic strategies to treat infections.
Objectives: To find out the fosfomycin sensitivity of the isolated enterobacteria and multidrug-resistant microorganisms from different laboratory specimens.
Material and methods: An analytical and descriptive study was carried out where 100 strains were collected, especially from the
Enterobacteriaceae family and other multidrug-resistant microorganisms, isolated from hospitalized patients and from outpatient therapy; they were identified by the automated system MALDI-TOF (bioMérieux) and VITEK 2XL; they were tested by a sensitivity challenge to fosfomycin through the Kirby-Bauer method.
Results: 98% susceptible and 2% resistant strains were identified.
Conclusion: Fosfomycin can be considered a suitable therapeutic option for enterobacteria and multidrug-resistant strains based on the sensitivity studied.
