    BACKGROUND AND ObjectiveOmadacycline is an aminomethylcycline antibiotic approved in the USA as once-daily intravenous/oral monotherapy for adults with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). Omadacycline demonstrated noninferiority to the fluoroquinolone moxifloxacin in a phase III CABP trial; adverse-event rates were similar between treatment groups except for Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), which occurred in 2% of moxifloxacin-treated patients and 0% of patients on omadacycline. Conceptual healthcare-decision analytic models were developed to better understand the economic implications of antibiotic selection and CDI risk in acute-care facilities.
