Proteus Vulgaris - Treatments

Treatments

Known antibiotics that P. vulgaris is sensitive to:

Ciprofloxacin
Ceftazidime
Netilmicin
Sulbactam or Cefoperazo
Meropenem
Piperacillin/tazobactam
Unasyn

Antibiotics should be introduced in much higher doses than "normal" when P. vulgaris has infected the sinus or respiratory tissues; for example Ciprofloxacin should be introduced at a level of at least 2000 mg per day orally in such a situation, rather than the "standard" 1000 mg per day.
