Brief Summary: Intra-abdominal infections are often polymicrobial and include aerobic as well as anaerobic bacteria Antibiotics used in intra-abdominal infections should aim to cover organisms such as Enterobacteriaceae and Bacteroides fragilis which are the commonest organisms known to cause such infections Combinations of a third-generation cephalosporin an aminoglycoside and metronidazole are often used to treat such infections in surgical settings An alternative to such combinations is the use of a beta lactam - beta lactamase inhibitor combination Magnex cefoperazone- sulbactam is one such combination which has been shown to be as effective as a standard multidrug regimen such as gentamicin and clindamycin in the management of intra-abdominal infections The combination of ceftazidime amikacin and metronidazole has been chosen as a comparator regimen because of its broad coverage of Gram-negative and anaerobic organisms found in such conditions
