PURPOSE: Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections with limited therapeutic options. Combination of at least two antimicrobials is a possible strategy to obtain rapid and sustained bactericidal effects and overcome the emergence of resistance. We revised the literature on linezolid synergistic properties from in vitro studies to assess its activity in combination with molecules belonging to other antibiotic classes against Enterococcus spp.
METHODS: We performed a systematic review of the literature from three peer-reviewed databases including papers evaluating linezolid synergistic properties in vitro against Enterococcus spp. isolates.
RESULTS: We included 206 Enterococcus spp. isolates (92 E. faecalis, 90 E. faecium, 2 E. gallinarum, 3 E. casseliflavus, 19 Enterococcus spp.) from 24 studies. When an isolate was tested with different combinations, each combination was considered independently for further analysis. The most frequent interaction was indifferent effect (247/343, 72% of total interactions). The highest synergism rates were observed when linezolid was tested in combination with rifampin (10/49, 20.4% of interactions) and fosfomycin (16/84, 19.0%, of interactions). Antagonistic effect accounted for 7/343 (2.0%) of total interactions.
CONCLUSION: Our study reported overall limited synergistic in vitro properties of linezolid with other antibiotics when tested against Enterococcus spp. The clinical choice of linezolid in combination with other antibiotics should be guided by reasoned empiric therapy in the suspicion of a polymicrobial infection or targeted therapy on microbiological results, rather than on an intended synergistic effect of the linezolid-based combination.
