Resolution of persistent Pediococcus bacteremia with daptomycin treatment: case report and review of the literature.

Byungse Suh1.   

Abstract

A case of bacteremia caused by Pediococcus acidilactici occurring in a patient with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder is described. The bacteremia persisted despite an antimicrobial regimen of vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, and caspofungin. Within 36 h of switching the vancomycin to daptomycin (6 mg/kg per day), the bacteremia resolved and the patient improved clinically. Previous reports of human pediococcal infection are also reviewed.
