Updates on Antibiotic Therapy
ANTIBIOTICS Fluoroquinolones The fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics work via inhibition of DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II). Resistance is mediated through chromosomal mutations in DNA gyrase which confers cross-resistance to other FQs. FQs distribute well to tissues and intracellularly. Elimination is via the kidney, and these drugs are often highly effective for treating resistant UTIs. The sp...
متن کاملAntibiotic Therapy *
The advent of each new antibiotic is not an unmixed blessing. The advantage of acquiring another agent whose range of antibacterial activity parallels that of already existing antibiotics is somewhat offset by the necessity of re-evaluating the known in the light of the new unknown.

متن کاملHypomagnesaemia with Secondary Hypocalcaemia
In 1965, Paunier et al. described a child of 6 weeks who had generalized convulsions and tetany, associated with low serum magnesium and calcium levels.

متن کاملA Case of Severe Hypomagnesaemia
Hypomagnesaemia is a common finding that occurs in hospitalised patients and can be caused by renal or extrarenal wasting. Because it is not routinely tested, even severe hypomagnesaemia can be missed. In cases of extrarenal wasting, the kidney can decrease its magnesium excretion to very low levels. A systematic diagnostic approach allows the proper diagnosis and treatment of hypomagnesaemia. ...
