also has activity against Gram-positive pathogens including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This formulation is administered using a single-patient use, vibrating-plate nebulizer that is compatible with all ventilators. The nebulizer creates small, uniform aerosol droplets that deliver drug to the small airways and alveoli.

Integration of this novel antibiotic formulation and device has the potential to achieve significant clinical outcomes relative to current standard therapy.
