The fluoroquinolones: How long will their utility last?

1 Feb 2004

Abstract excerpt

Injudicious use of the fluoroquinolones may result in treatment failure, increased patient morbidity, increased health care cost, and possible patient fatality. Fluoroquinolone-resistant bacteria may also adversely impact the microbiological environment in the hospital, the local community and eventually large geographical regions. Fluoroquinolone resistance develops in a stepwise fashion, and current...
