Hello dear,
Generally staphylococcus that are developing now is penicillin resistant and methicillin-resistant strains(MRSA)
Penicillinase-resistant penicillins (flucloxacillin, dicloxacillin) remain the antibiotics of choice for the management of serious methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) infections.
And for MRSA: take cephalexin, cephazolin, clindamycin, lincomycin.
So better to take combination of both flucloxacin plus cephalexin
Hope this may help you.
Get well soon.
Take care.
Thank you.
