IndicationOritavancin is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure (including subcutaneous) infection. It is used for confirmed/suspected infections with designated and susceptible gram-positive organisms.[L8492] There are two preparations of oritavancin; the 400 mg dose that is administered over 3 hours, and the 1200 mg dose administered over 1 hour. Both are indicated for susceptible gram-positive skin and skin structure infections in adults.[L8492,L32629] As antimicrobial susceptibility patterns are geographically distinct, local antibiograms should be consulted to ensure adequate coverage of relevant pathogens prior to use.
