Study of Single Dose Daptomycin in Pediatric Patients With Gram-positive Infection for Which They Are Receiving Standard Antibiotics

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of daptomycin in patients aged 2-17 years old who have a suspected or proven gram-positive infection for which they are receiving standard antibiotic therapy. The tolerability of a single dose of daptomycin in these patients will also be assessed.
