Fluoroquinolones in the treatment of meningitis
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2003The continuous increase of resistant pathogens causing meningitis has limited the efficacy of standard therapeutic regimens. Due to their excellent activity in vitro and their good penetration into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), fluoroquinolones appear promising for the treatment of meningitis caused by gram-negative microorganisms, ie, Neisseria ...

The Role of the Fluoroquinolones
Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 1992Over the past decade, the quinolone antimicrobial class has enjoyed a renaissance with the emergence of the fluoroquinolone subclass. Norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, enoxacin, and lomefloxacin have the advantages of broad antimicrobial activity profiles including gram‐positive and ‐negative aerobes, favorable pharmacokinetic

The fluoroquinolones have become widely used antibacterial agents in the treatment of ocular infections, with topical, intravitreal and systemic routes of administration being used. In general, fluoroquinolones (such as ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, lomefloxacin and norfloxacin) have good activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria ...

The main types of adverse effects associated with quinolones are uncommon and reversible and vary in frequency among different agents. Phototoxicity appears more frequent with lomefloxacin than with some other quinolones. Three mechanisms have been proposed to explain the neurotoxic effects, including rare proconvulsant activity, associated with ...

Abstract The original quinolone, nalidixic acid, was discovered in the 1960s as a byproduct of the purification of the antimalarial drug, chloroquine.4 Unfortunately, nalidixic acid has a narrow antibacterial spectrum, with activity mainly against gram-negative organ isms. Nalidixic acid penetrates poorly into the tissues; thus it can be

Fluoroquinolones are the newest antibiotics for treatment of some infections caused by highly resistant bacteria (eg, Pseudomonas aeruginosa). Clinically sound indications for these drugs include resistant infections of the urinary, intestinal, and respiratory tracts; otitis externa; osteomyelitis; foot infections in diabetic patients; and late ...
