To SLEY FAME. In staph infection, antibiotics are chosen on the basis of results of (urinary) culture and antibiotic sensitivity tests, as you can read in lab tests for staph. So, antibiotic choise depends on exact subtype (strain) of S. aureus found in the urine.

To chessfer.

Yes, Staphylococcus aureus may be transmitted by kissing, since some people have these bacteria in their mouth. But, if the person, you’re kissing, is only a carrier of S. aureus, and doesn’t have an active infection with symptoms like sore throat, it is possible you will acquire S. aureus, but it is not likely you’ll get an active infection.

But if your mouth mucosa is injured from some reason (ulcers…) you may get infected even by a person without active infection…

S. aureus is mainly transmitted by skin-to-skin contact with a person with an obvious skin infection (boil, pemphigus…), and not so easy like, for example, the flu.
