Aztreonam is a monocyclic beta-lactam antibiotic that is active exclusively against the aerobic gram-negative bacilli. It is not ototoxic or nephrotoxic and so is used as an alternative to aminoglycosides in a variety of clinical situations.

Introduction: Resistance to carbapenems due to the co-production of NDM and ESBL or NDM and KPC is increasing. Therefore, combined therapy with aztreonam (ATM) plus ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) has been recommended.

Aztreonam is the first monobactam and is unique among beta-lactam antibiotics for its spectrum of activity that is exclusively active against gram-negative aerobic bacteria. Broad clinical experience with this agent supports its use in the treatment of adults with severe or complicated urologic infections.

Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are among the most challenging bacterial enzymes to overcome. Aztreonam (ATM) is the only β-lactam not hydrolyzed by MBLs but is often inactivated by co-produced extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL).

Increasing antimicrobial resistance among multidrug-resistant (MDR), extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)- and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), in particular metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-positive strains, has led to limited treatment options ...

Background. The difficulties of antibacterial therapy of infections caused by carbapenemase-producing gram-negative bacteria are associated with limited options for adequate therapy since, in addition to resistance to carbapenems and other beta-lactams ...
