摘要
Despite the increasing availability of antibiotics with activity against pathogens that cause community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), CAP remains a major cause of morbidity, hospital admissions and readmissions, and mortality. Lefamulin is a novel pleuromutilin antibiotic with potent in vitro activity against both typical and atypical CAP pathogens. In this review of the medical literature, we summarize the available information, including mounting clinical evidence, about lefamulin and its potential value in CAP.
