Sodium fusidate in surgical wound infections
The American Journal of Surgery, 1968Abstract The new antistaphylococcal drug, sodium fusidate, was studied in 102 surgical wound infections with a culture of coagulase-positive Staph. aureus. An 84 per cent resolution of the infections was achieved. In thirty-four infections which were resistant to other synthetic penicillins, sodium fusidate was 62 per cent effective.
