Q

Post-Antibiotic Effect (PAE):

A
  • Some antibiotics continue to suppress the growth of bacteria even after the antibiotic is no longer detectable
  • PAE demonstrated for virtually all antimicrobials
  • PAEs can be decreased in acidic (infected) media
  • During the PAE phase, bacteria are more susceptible to killing by leukocytes
