Time-Kill Evaluation of Antibiotic Combinations Containing Ceftazidime-Avibactam against Extensively Drug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Their Potential Role against Ceftazidime-Avibactam-Resistant Isolates

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA) has emerged as a promising solution to the lack of new antibiotics against Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Data from in vitro assays of CZA combinations, however, are scarce. The objective of our study was to perform a time-
