WHAT DAPTOMYCIN XELLIA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
The active substance in Daptomycin Xellia powder for solution for
injection/infusion (referred to as
Daptomycin Xellia throughout this leaflet) is daptomycin. Daptomycin
is an antibacterial that can stop
the growth of certain bacteria.
Daptomycin Xellia is used in adults and in children and adolescents
(age from 1 to 17 years) to treat
infections of the skin and the tissues below the skin. It is also used
to treat infections in the blood when
associated with skin infection.
Daptomycin Xellia is also used in adults to treat infections in the
tissues that line the inside of the heart
(including heart valves) which are caused by a type of bacteria called
_Staphylococcus aureus_. It is also
used to treat infections in the blood caused by the same type of
bacteria when associated with heart
infection.
Depending on the type of infection(s) that you have, your doctor may
also prescribe other
antibacterials while you are receiving treatment with Daptomycin
Xellia.


Adult and paediatric (1 to 17 years of age) patients with complicated
skin and soft-tissue infections (cSSTI).

use of antibacterial agents.
