*In general, linezolid, ceftazidime, meropenem, and moxifloxacin appear to reliably reach adequate intravitreal levels to be used routinely, and likely vancomycin as well
**Agents that are likely effective, especially when inflammation is present, include [[vancomycin]], [[cefazolin]], [[ceftriaxone]], [[ceftazidime]], [[imipenem]], and [[trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole]], and possible [[daptomycin]] and [[rifampin]]

Class Antimicrobial Blood CNS Urine Prostate Necrotic
  • † if inflammation present

Specific Tissues

Prostate

  • Poorly penetrated by most antibiotics
  • Penetration is higher with a high concentration gradient, high lipid solubility, low degree of ionization, high dissociation constant, low protein binding, and small molecular size
  • Fluoroquinolones are the mainstay of therapy, though there is increasing resistance
  • TMP-SMX often used, though conflicting data about its penetration into the prostate
  • Minocycline, doxycycline, and macrolides achieve high levels in the prostate but are rarely indicated for the causative organisms
  • Third-generation cephalosporins and carbapenems can be used
  • Piperacillin, aztreonam, imipenem, and some aminoglycosides are likely useful

Bone

  • Essentially all antibiotics achieve similar bone-to-serum levels, with the exception of oral β-lactams which nevertheless have no worse outcomes1

Eye

Class Antimicrobial Vitreal Penetration
penicillins ampicillin below MIC in non-inflamed rabbit eyes
amoxicillin 2% (below MIC) in non-inflamed rabbit eyes
piperacillin undetectable in inflamed human eyes
cephalosporins cefazolin above MIC in inflamed rabbit eyes
ceftriaxone 4% in non-inflamed human eyes
ceftazidime 30% in inflamed rabbit eyes
cefipime 8% in non-inflamed human eyes
carbapenems imipenem 8 to 10% in non-inflamed human eyes
meropenem 30% in non-inflamed human eyes
oxazolidinones linezolid 30 to 80% in non-inflamed human eyes
vancomycin above MIC in inflamed rabbit eyes
daptomycin 30% in inflamed human eyes
aminoglycosides amikacin below MIC in inflamed rabbit eyes
gentamicin below MIC in inflamed rabbit eyes
fluoroquinolones ciprofloxacin below MIC in non-inflamed human eyes
levofloxacin 30% but below MIC in non-inflamed human eyes
moxifloxacin 10 to 40% and above MIC in non-inflamed human eyes
