We reported that in our trial we had not used furaltadone in cases of acute fulminating staphylococcal septicremia because we felt the drug (given orally) would not produce therapeutic blood levels quickly enough. The results of McCabe et alii (particularly relating to blood levels and the disc method of sensitivity testing) throw doubt on the reliability of furaltadone as an antistaphylococcal drug and further assessment seems necessary. Until this is done, as Dr. Godfrey says, there are other efficient drugs available for the control of staphylococcal infections.
