The emergence of multidrug-resistant microbial strains poses a significant challenge to global public health. In response, researchers have been exploring innovative antimicrobial agents with enhanced efficacy and novel mechanisms of action. One promising approach involves the synthesis of hybrid molecules combining azetidinone and azole moieties, capitalizing on the respective antimicrobial properties of both structural elements.

Infectious complications significantly impact morbidity and mortality following lung transplantation (LuTx), with over 25% of post-transplant deaths attributed to infections. Antibiotic prophylaxis during the surgical procedure is crucial for reducing early infections, though the current use of wide-spectrum antibiotics, especially in cases of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), is contentious and varies widely across centre. This practice raises concerns about antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly in immunosuppressed patients requiring lifelong healthcare access.

Introduction: Salmonella, a foodborne zoonotic pathogen, is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in animals and humans globally. With the prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains, Salmonellosis has become a formidable challenge. Host-directed therapy (HDT) has recently emerged as a promising anti-infective approach for treating intracellular bacterial infections.

Purpose Of Review: To evaluate the current evidence on the use of omadacycline for the treatment of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs).
Recent Findings: This narrative review examines the available data on the pharmacology, clinical efficacy, safety profile, and comparative effectiveness of omadacycline in treating SSTIs, with a focus on its potential role in everyday clinical practice.
Summary: Omadacycline is a viable option for outpatient therapy and early discharge in patients with SSTIs, particularly in frail populations and those undergoing chronic polypharmacotherapy.
