Dalbavancin for Injection is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) caused by designated susceptible strains of the following Gram-positive microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-susceptible and methicillin-resistant isolates), Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus agalactiae , Streptococcus dysgalactiae , Streptococcus anginosus group (including S. anginosus , S. intermedius , S . constellatus) and Enterococcus faecalis (vancomycin susceptible isolates). To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Dalbavancin for Injection and other antibacterial agents, Dalbavancin for Injection should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
