چکیده

The urinary antibacterial drugs enoxacin and norfloxacin were compared for efficacy and side effects in the treatment of lower urinary tract infections. Thirty-five patients received enoxacin and 25 received norfloxacin for one week. The antibacterial spectrum of enoxacin was noted to be better than that of norfloxacin, but both drugs performed well in clearing the infections caused by susceptible organisms. The incidence of side effects was higher with norfloxacin than with enoxacin.

In vitro comparison of A-56619, A-56620, amifloxacin, ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, norfloxacin, and ofloxacin against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Seven quinolone antibiotics were tested against 115 isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The MICs for 90% of the strains tested were 0.5 microgram/ml for A-56619, A-56620, ciprofloxacin, and ofloxacin; 2.0 micrograms/ml for amifloxacin and enoxacin; and 4.0 micrograms/ml for norfloxacin. Killing kinetic studies showed a similar killing rate for all seven antibiotics.
