Are there alternatives to nonoxynol-9 spermicide?
You're certainly not alone in your interest of this method. Spermicide is a popular option for birth control because it is easily accessible, simple to use, and provides added lubrication. Results from recent scientific studies for newer alternatives look promising, but more research is still needed. Some of the new ingredients being studied that may be able to function as spermicide (and provi...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of nemonoxacin, a novel nonfluorinated quinolone antibiotic, against Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia pneumoniae.
The in vitro activities of nemonoxacin, levofloxacin, azithromycin, and doxycycline were tested against 10 isolates each of Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia pneumoniae. The MICs at which 90% of the isolates of both C. trachomatis and C. pneumoniae were inhibited (MIC90s) were 0.06 μg/ml (range, 0.03 to 0.13 μg/ml). The minimal bactericidal concentrations at which 90% of the isolates were kil...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of azithromycin (CP-62,993) against Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia pneumoniae.
The in vitro susceptibilities of 49 strains of Chlamydia trachomatis and 3 strains of Chlamydia pneumoniae to azithromycin and tetracycline or doxycycline were determined. The MIC of azithromycin ranged from < or = 0.06 to 1.0 micrograms/ml, the MIC of tetracycline ranged from 0.03 to 0.12 micrograms/ml, and the MIC of doxycycline ranged from 0.015 to 0.06 micrograms/ml against C. trachomatis. ...
متن کاملIn-vitro activity of gatifloxacin against Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia pneumoniae.
We compared the activity of gatifloxacin, a new quinolone, ofloxacin and erythromycin against five isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis and 20 isolates of Chlamydia pneumoniae, including TW183 and clinical isolates from the USA and Japan. Testing was done in cycloheximide-treated HEp-2 cells. Gatifloxacin was slightly less active against C. trachomatis and slightly more active against C. pneumonia...
متن کاملIn vitro synergy of clindamycin and aminoglycosides against Chlamydia trachomatis.
The importance of Chlamydia trachomatis as an etiologic agent in the development of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is well documented. Although there are numerous antimicrobial agents that are effective against C. trachomatis, one of the most frequent combinations that is used to treat PID is clindamycin and gentamicin. The efficacy of clindamycin as the sole treatment for chlamydial infecti...
