In-vitro activity of fleroxacin

A Georgopoulos et al. J Antimicrob Chemother. 1988 Oct.

Abstract

Fleroxacin is a new synthetic fluorinated quinolone antimicrobial agent. The in-vitro activity of fleroxacin and five comparative quinolones against 541 clinical isolates was studied. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC90) of fleroxacin were less than or equal to 2.0 mg/l for Enterobacteriaceae, less than or equal to 8.0 mg/l for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 1.0 mg/l for Acinetobacter calcoaceficis and 8 mg/l for streptococci. The activity of fleroxacin was comparable with that of ofloxacin, pefloxacin and norfloxacin, but less than that of ciprofloxacin. All quinolones showed little difference between MIC and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs).
