if coverage for both CA-MRSA and Beta-hemolytic streptococci MRSA isolates that are susceptible to clindamycin in vitro may have inducible clindamycin.

In severely ill, or risk for MRSA, empiric coverage aureus, though for CA-MRSA susceptibilities to clindamycin vary by geographic location.

While there are other single options for coverage, they either have suboptimal MRSA coverage (i.e. clindamycin and doxycycline) or are more expensive (i.e. linezolid). Without reliable ways to determine which patients need MRSA coverage, it is unclear which patients with uncomplicated cellulitis need to be discharged with MRSA coverage and
