Resistance mechanism Tigecycline Eravacycline Omadacycline
ESBL Can use, unless BSI/UTI Can use, unless BSI/UTI Can use but limited data, Avoid in BSI
CRE Can use, unless BSI/UTI Can use, unless BSI/UTI Avoid
CRAB Use in combination Use if no other option available Avoid
S.maltophilia Can use, unless UTI Can use, unless UTI Avoid

Tigecycline or eravacycline can be considered as alternative options for intra-abdominal infections, SSTI, osteomyelitis, and respiratory infections
