#Rhodococcus equi now named R. hoagii may be challenging to treat since its antimicrobial drug susceptibility is unusual. Most isolates are susceptible to clarithromycin, rifampin, imipenem, erythromycin, aminoglycosides, azithromycin, doxycycline, and vancomycin

#Rhodococcus equi is a pleomorphic gram positive rod,may vary from distinctly coccoid to bacillary.
-Early colonies look small & white, resembling diphtheroids and may be mistakenly dismissed as a contaminant
-typical salmon-pink colonies may not appear until days4-7 of growth
