  1. Staphylococcal Infections: Nafcillin is commonly used to treat infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, including:

    • Skin and soft tissue infections: Such as cellulitis, abscesses, wound infections, and infected burns.
    • Bone and joint infections: Including osteomyelitis (bone infection) and septic arthritis (joint infection).
    • Respiratory tract infections: Such as pneumonia, especially when caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA).
    • Bloodstream infections: Including bacteremia and sepsis caused by MSSA.
  2. Nafcillin-resistant Infections: Nafcillin is specifically effective against penicillinase-producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus. It is not effective against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or other methicillin-resistant strains.

  3. Dosage and Administration: Nafcillin is usually administered intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM) under the supervision of a healthcare provider. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the severity and type of infection, as well as the patient's age, weight, and kidney function.

  4. Adverse Effects: Common side effects of nafcillin may include:

    • Gastrointestinal disturbances: Such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
    • Hypersensitivity reactions: Including rash, itching, and allergic dermatitis. Serious allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis are rare but can occur.
    • Injection site reactions: Such as pain, swelling, and inflammation at the injection site.
  5. Drug Interactions: Nafcillin may interact with other medications, including anticoagulants (blood thinners), oral contraceptives, and some other antibiotics. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking before starting nafcillin therapy.

  6. Monitoring: During treatment with nafcillin, patients may require monitoring of kidney and liver function, as well as monitoring for signs of allergic reactions or other adverse effects.

  7. Resistance and Sensitivity Testing: Due to the emergence of antibiotic resistance, it is essential to perform culture and sensitivity testing before initiating nafcillin therapy to ensure its effectiveness against the specific bacterial strain causing the infection.

  8. Duration of Treatment: The duration of nafcillin treatment varies depending on the type and severity of the infection. It is important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished.

Impacted of nafcillin sodium salt monohydrate (antibiotic) On Probiotics

Bacteria Impacted by nafcillin sodium salt monohydrate (antibiotic)

We extend modifiers to include items that changes the parent and child taxa. I.e. for a species, that would be the genus that is belongs to and the strains in the species.

Impact of nafcillin sodium salt monohydrate (antibiotic) on Conditions from US National Library of Medicine

A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.

We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive   X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.

Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
