Characterization of Bacterial Infections in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients Who Received Prophylactic Levofloxacin With Either Penicillin or Doxycycline

Levofloxacin with penicillin or doxycycline prophylaxis may contribute to the emergence of resistant GN infections in allogeneic HSCT recipients over time. Our findings provide additional support for the current standard of practice of administering empiric monotherapy with an antipseudomonal β-lactam if these patients develop fever or are suspected to have an infection.
