Cefiderocol sulfate tosylate

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE FETROJA is a cephalosporin antibacterial indicated in patients 18 years of age or older for the treatment of the following infections caused by susceptible Gram-negative microorganisms: Complicated Urinary Tract Infections (cUTI), including Pyelonephritis ( 1.1 ) Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP) ( 1.2 ) To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of FETROJA and other antibacterial drugs, FETROJA should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria. ( 1.3 ) 1.1 Complicated Urinary Tract Infections (cUTIs), Including Pyelonephritis FETROJA ® is indicated in patients 18 years of age or older for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs), including pyelonephritis caused by the following susceptible Gram-negative microorganisms: Escherichia coli , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Proteus mirabilis , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Enterobacter cloacae complex [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . 1.2 Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP) FETROJA is indicated in patients 18 years of age or older for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, caused by the following susceptible Gram-negative microorganisms: Acinetobacter baumannii complex, Escherichia coli , Enterobacter cloacae complex, Klebsiella pneumoniae , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Serratia marcescens [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ]. 1.3 Usage To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of FETROJA and other antibacterial drugs, FETROJA should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
