Pipemidic acid is an antibiotic and derivative of piromidic acid .1 It is active against clinical isolates of E. coli, P. mirabilis, P. inconstans, Shigella, Salmonella, Alcaligenes, and V. parahaemolyticus (MICs = 0.78-100 µg/ml), as well as drug-resistant clinical isolates of E. coli, P. mirabilis, Klebsiella, and Shigella (MICs = 1.56-6.25 µg/ml). Pipemidic acid is protective against systemic S. aureus, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa infections in mice (ED50s = 237.5, 204.1, 28.6, and 99.5 mg/kg, respectively).2 It is also protective against P. aeruginosa-induced pulmonary and dermal infections (ED50s = 81.7 and 173.2 mg/kg, respectively), as well as E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa urinary bladder infections (ED50s = 4.8, 11.9, and 30.6 mg/kg, respectively), in mice.
