Staph infections can become more serious when the bacteria enter the bloodstream or deeper tissues. This can lead to conditions like bacteremia (bacterial bloodstream infection),sepsis(widespread infection and inflammation), pneumonia, bone and joint infections, and endocarditis (infection of the heart ...
Less serious infections are often susceptible totrimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole(Bactrim),doxycycline(Vibramycin), andclindamycin(Cleocin), all of which come in an oral form as well as IV. Rarely, some strains have become resistant to vancomycin (vancomycin-resistance, vancomycin-resistantStaph aureus, VRSA...
The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staph-ylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the United States continues to increase, with more than 94,000 cases of invasive disease reported in 2005. Illnesses caused by MRSA include skin and soft-tissue infections, bacteremia and endocarditis, pneumonia, bone and ...
Bacteria that typically cause cellulitis include group AStreptococcusandStaphylococcusaureus(also known as staph or staph infection). SomeS. aureusinfections are resistant to someantibiotics(for example, methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureusorMRSA) or are prone to causing abscesses or collections of pus...

When the bacteria enter the bloodstream and spread to other organs, a number of serious infections can occur. The spread of the organisms to the bloodstream is known as bacteremia or sepsis. When staph bacteria are present in the blood (infection of the bloodstream), the condition is known ...
Preferably, said gram positive bacterial cell is a Staphylococcus, more preferably a Staphylococcus aureus. Preferably, said composition is a medicament preferably for use in the treatment of eczema, most preferably for use in the treatment of atopic dermatitis, as further detailed herein. The state...
