Abstract
Kimyrsa is a new formulation (NF) of the original formulation of oritavancin ([OF] Orbactiv). Comparatively, the obvious benefit with this product is the shortened infusion time and flexibility with solution compatibility, but otherwise maintains a similar pharmacokinetic and microbiologic profile. At present, the NF lacks significant real-world experience relative to other available lipoglycopeptides and thus its place in therapy remains difficult to predict but would not be expected to be significantly different than its OF.
