For Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Infection "This antibiotic was administered every 8 hours for 10 days, saved my leg, possibly my life. Yes, I had heartburn, yes, I had a rash, and I'd do it all over again because it saved my life. I hope this country continues to develop powerful drugs like this one that can save us from diseases, infections, and such that continue to overtake our communities."
