Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 1992
The fluoroquinolones represent a relatively new class of antibiotics with outstanding therapeutic potential, attributable to their broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity and favourable tissue distribution. They are highly active against most Gram-negative pathogens, as well as Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci.

Quinolones are potent antibacterial agents that can cause drug hypersensitivity reactions affecting different organs. A better understanding of the underlying mechanism and the level of crossreactivity within different quinolones is needed to handle and prevent these diseases.The adverse side-effects caused by quinolones are the result of different ...

The quinolones are synthetic antibiotics chemically related to nalidixic acid. Since its introduction, several structural analogues have been synthesized. A fundamental breakthrough was the addition of a fluorine atom. The quinolones interfere with bacterial DNA transcription by inhibiting the enzyme DNA gyrase, that so far has only been found in ...

Quinolone antibacterial agents were first introduced into the clinical environment in the early 1960s. The first qumolone to be clinically used was nalidixic acid, which was used for the treatment of enteric and urinary tract infections. As a result of increased clinical resistance to this drug, its use has declined.

Fluoroquinolones have been in use for the past five years. The agents inhibit Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and staphylococci, but some agents lack activity against streptococci and none of the commercially available agents inhibits anaerobic species.

The fluorinated quinolones are synthetic derivatives of nalidixic acid. They are well absorbed when administered orally and have an extended duration of action. They are of primary value in treating gonorrhea and complicated urinary tract infections in nonpregnant women.

Fluoroquinolones have broad antibacterial spectra and are active against most Gram-negative and many Gram-positive species. They exhibit excellent oral bioavailability, extensive tissue penetration, low protein binding, and a long elimination half-life.

Hypersensitivity Reactions to Quinolones
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2006Quinolones are one of the most important classes of antimicrobial agents discovered in the recent years and one of the most widely used classes of antibiotics in clinical medicine. Their broad spectrum of activity and pharmacokinetic properties make them ideal agents for treating a variety of infections.

Resistance to quinolones is only due to mutations. The mechanism and the range of quinolones involved, depend on the locus of the chromosomal mutation e.g. a mutation in the gyr A locus is associated with resistance due to changes in the gyrase. Using high inocula in vitro, varying, but relatively low mutation rates of resistance to fluoroquinolones ...

New fluoroquinolones and fluoronaphthyridones continue to provide the mainstay of antibiotic development, despite recent events associated with unexpected or uncharacteristically severe adverse drug reactions. These have included hepatotoxicity caused by trovafloxacin (suspended), cardiotoxicity associated with grepafloxacin, and phototoxicity caused ...
