Rifampicin in pneumococcal meningoencephalitis.

M J Peters1, B L Pizer, M Millar.   

Abstract

The cases are reported of two infants with pneumococcal meningitis in whom initial antibiotic treatment was ineffective despite the organisms being sensitive to the drugs used. A clinical and radiological diagnosis of meningoencephalitis was made. A rapid improvement followed the addition of rifampicin treatment.
