TELAVANCIN (VIBATIV®) is a lipoglycopeptide antibacterial that is a synthetic derivative of vancomycin. It exerts concentration-dependent, bactericidal activity against Gram-positive organisms in vitro. TELAVANCIN (VIBATIV®) inhibits cell wall biosynthesis by binding to late-stage peptidoglycan precursors, including lipid II. It also binds to the bacterial membrane and disrupts membrane barrier function. TELAVANCIN (VIBATIV®) is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with complicated skin and skin structure infections caused by susceptible isolates of the following Gram-positive microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-susceptible and -resistant isolates), Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus anginosus group (includes S. anginosus, S. intermedius, and S. constellatus), or Enterococcus faecalis (vancomycin-susceptible isolates only). It is also indicated for the treatment of adult patients with hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP), caused by susceptible isolates of Staphylococcus aureus (both methicillin-susceptible and -resistant isolates). It should be reserved for use when alternative treatments are not suitable.
