pubmed:abstractText |
Cystic fibrosis patients have chronic bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, most commonly Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Although controversial, administration of antibiotic therapy during acute pulmonary exacerbations is standard practice. Fluoroquinolones are currently not indicated for use in young children because of the observation of arthropathy and damage to growing cartilage in beagle puppies. Because of its activity against P. aeruginosa and excellent oral bioavailability, ciprofloxacin offers a unique therapeutic alternative for this patient population.
