1 We gathered all prescriptions of cefoxitin for urinary tract infection due to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase isolates. Cefoxitin beta-lactamase Klebsiella pneumoniae
2 Conclusion: In a period of major threat with a continuous increase of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase obliging to a policy of carbapenem-sparing regimens, it seems detrimental to deprive physicians of using cefoxitin for extended-spectrum beta-lactamase Enterobacteriaceae for the treatment of urinary tract infection while our data show its efficacy. Cefoxitin beta-lactamase Klebsiella pneumoniae
