	β-lactam antibiotics, which include penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems,have been used to treat Staphylococcus aureus infections. The overuse and misuse of β-lactam antibiotics has led to strains of Staphylococcus aureus that are resistant to all β-lactams; so called MRSA strains. MRSA can be hospital- or community-acquired and are often the cause of significant morbidity and mortality.		β-lactam antibiotics, which include penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems,have been used to treat Staphylococcus aureus infections.
