Pharmacodynamics of β-lactamase inhibitors are an area of intense interest as new β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations enter clinical development and clinical practice. Avibactam, a non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor, has been combined with ceftaroline or ceftazidime but these two combinations have not been directly compared.
