Breakthrough bacteremia and meningitis during treatment with cephalosporins parenterally for pneumococcal pneumonia.

S C Buckingham1, S P Brown, V H Joaquin.   

Abstract

An extended-spectrum cephalosporin has been considered appropriate therapy for non-meningeal infections caused by drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. We report a toddler who had breakthrough bacteremia and meningitis develop because of drug-resistant pneumococcus while receiving treatment with cefotaxime and cefuroxime for pneumonia.
