Abstract: Two patients with bacteraemia are described, one who failed to respond to treatment with clindamycin and the other with lincomycin, in spite of sensitivity of the organisms to these antibiotics. Subsequently the patients were successfully treated with metronidazole. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
