  1. Staphylococcal Infections: Cloxacillin is primarily used to treat infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, including skin and soft tissue infections, wound infections, abscesses, cellulitis, and osteomyelitis. It is effective against both methicillin-sensitive and methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA and MRSA).

  2. Streptococcal Infections: Cloxacillin may also be used to treat infections caused by Streptococcus species, although it is less commonly prescribed for this purpose compared to other antibiotics such as penicillin or amoxicillin.

  3. Other Gram-Positive Infections: In addition to Staphylococcus and Streptococcus infections, cloxacillin may have activity against other gram-positive bacteria such as some species of Enterococcus.

  4. Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: Cloxacillin is particularly effective in treating skin and soft tissue infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, including impetigo, cellulitis, folliculitis, and infected wounds.

  5. Surgical Prophylaxis: Cloxacillin may be used prophylactically to prevent surgical site infections in procedures where the risk of Staphylococcus aureus infection is high, such as orthopedic surgeries or surgeries involving implants.

  6. Bone and Joint Infections: Cloxacillin is sometimes used in the treatment of bone and joint infections, including osteomyelitis and septic arthritis, especially when caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

  7. Respiratory Tract Infections: While cloxacillin is not commonly used to treat respiratory tract infections, it may be prescribed in cases where the infection is known or suspected to be caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

  8. Infective Endocarditis: Cloxacillin may be part of the antibiotic regimen used to treat infective endocarditis, particularly in cases where Staphylococcus aureus is the causative organism.

  9. Adverse Reactions: Common side effects of cloxacillin include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Allergic reactions, including skin rashes and anaphylaxis, are possible but relatively rare.

  10. Antibiotic Resistance: As with all antibiotics, the overuse or misuse of cloxacillin can contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Therefore, it should only be used when indicated and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

Impacted of cloxacillin On Probiotics

Bacteria Impacted by cloxacillin

We extend modifiers to include items that changes the parent and child taxa. I.e. for a species, that would be the genus that is belongs to and the strains in the species.

Impact of cloxacillin on Conditions from US National Library of Medicine

A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.

We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive   X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.

Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
