@chrishopkins123.bsky.social🔥 Brilliants minds debate oral fosfomycin for complicated UTI including pyelonephritis. With increasing ESBLs, we need options for UTI beyond cystitis. Oral fosfomycin is an appealing option, but is it ok for infection outside the bladder? #pharmacist #pharmacyschool #learnantibiotics #fosfomycin

Show PostHonestly when reviewing the PK and PTAs from the limited data we have, I am not 100% convinced cefadroxil is much better. 30 minutes more half-life might not make much of a difference. The next question then is do we really even need this much cephalexin (could we do 1g BID)?!
Show PostI wondered when #cefadroxil would enter the chat! Just added to inpatient formulary ~6 months ago, so cephalexin still accounts for about 95% of our first gen oral cephalosporin use right now.
