MRSA Treatment

When researching MRSA treatment, there seems to be one antibiotic that is always mentioned which is vancomycin. This antibiotic is widely used in the treatment of resistant germs and is used mostly in hospitals and care facilities as a MRSA treatment.

The occurrence of MRSA has skyrocketed in the last five to ten years and is now the most common hospital pathogen. This is why it is critical to use effective antibiotics as a MRSA treatment rather than using less effective antibiotics. MRSA is a changing organism and a changing type of infection. More research is needed to optimize MRSA treatment and to better understand this infection.

As current MRSA treatments include a variety of antibiotics and the draining of abscesses, experts are not yet certain about the most effective MRSA treatment.

I truly agree with you on research needs to be done to optimize the best treatment for MRSA.

This is a monster. Vancomycin, drainage, & prayer is the only way. Anything else is a waste of time. Prevention should be taken more seriously. It can be life changing. Stay aware. This bug acts fast. ACT FASTER!
