Abstract
The interaction between ciprofloxacin and vancomycin against nine isolates of Staphylococcus epidermidis from cases of infective endocarditis and three strains of S. aureus was studied. Killing curves indicated the presence of antagonism in the early stages, the clinical significance of which is uncertain. No synergy was found and the combination therefore does not appear to offer any advantages over vancomycin alone for the treatment of staphylococcal infections.
