Ceftolozane–tazobactam for the treatment of osteomyelitis caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens: a case series

Ceftolozane–tazobactam (CT) is a recently approved novel cephalosporin and β-lactamase inhibitor combination agent with in vitro activity against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including several multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative organisms. CT is currently approved by the US...
