摘要：

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are commonly treated with vancomycin (VAN) or another glycopeptide antibiotic. However, when vancomycin fails or infections recur, there are few other therapeutic options. Presented here are 2 cases where a novel combination of daptomycin, vancomycin, and rifampin resolved recurrent MRSA bone and prosthetic joint infections.
