- Abstract
Antistaphylococcal penicillins are the treatment of choice for methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) infection. Ceftriaxone can be dosed once daily and is less expensive for outpatient therapy than oxacillin. We compared patient outcomes of MSSA osteoarticular infections treated with ceftriaxone versus oxacillin.
