BACKGROUND Peritonitis is a complication associated with peritoneal dialysis (PD), which carries a significant morbidity and mortality risk. Empiric therapy must include coverage of gram-positive organisms; vancomycin is a recommended treatment option, particularly when MRSA infection is a risk. Vancomycin is cumbersome for patients, requiring therapeutic drug monitoring and re-administration by a healthcare provider. Dalbavancin, administered as a one-time intravenous dose, is a convenient potential treatment option for PD patients to cover gram-positive organisms without the need for routine drug monitoring. CASE REPORT We present 2 patients effectively treated with dalbavancin for infectious peritonitis. The first patient, a 73-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on PD, presented to the hospital with fever, elevated white blood cells (WBCs), and cloudy peritoneal fluid with elevated nucleated cell counts (88% neutrophils). This patient was given 1 dose of 1500 mg IV dalbavancin. Within 3 days, her fever resolved, WBCs returned to normal, and peritoneal fluid results improved. The second patient was a 36-year-old woman presenting to an outpatient clinic with abdominal pain and cloudy peritoneal fluid with elevated nucleated cell counts (53% neutrophils) treated with dalbavancin 1500 mg IV once. Within 4 days, this patient's pain had resolved, and peritoneal fluid results returned to baseline. No adverse effects were noted for either patient. CONCLUSIONS These cases illustrate the potential of dalbavancin as a convenient option for patients with PD-associated peritonitis. Both patients demonstrated rapid and complete response to a single dose of dalbavancin without complications. Further prospective studies are needed to establish dalbavancin as an option for peritonitis.
