OBJECTIVES: The use of cephalosporins combined with clavulanate for the treatment of ESBL-harbouring Enterobacteriaceae has been scarcely described. We aimed to describe the effect of different concentrations of clavulanate in the MIC of cefixime and ceftibuten of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
METHODS: ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates were studied. Fixed concentrations of cefixime and ceftibuten (ranges of 32-0.25 and 64-0.5 ng/ml, respectively) were used. Combinations of cefixime/clavulanate and ceftibuten/clavulanate in different ratios (1:0, 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, 16:1, 32:1) were tested. MIC were determined by broth microdilution.
RESULTS: A total of 6 ESBL-producing E. coli, 6 ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae and 2 control E. coli were tested. When different quantities of clavulanate were added to cefixime and ceftibuten, greater than two-fold decreases in the MIC were observed. When testing the 1:1 cefixime/clavulanate ratio, 10/12 isolates were susceptible. When the ratios 2:1, 4:1, 8:1 and 16:1 were tested, susceptibility was noted for 9/12, 8/12, 4/12 and 5/12 isolates, respectively. Only 2/12 K. pneumoniae isolates were susceptible when the ratio 32:1 was tested. When testing ceftibuten/clavulanate, all isolates remained susceptible across all experiments.
CONCLUSIONS: Clavulanic acid has a favourable effect in reducing the MIC of cefixime and ceftibuten in isolates of ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae. Combining clavulanate with ceftibuten or cefixime could be a useful treatment strategy.
