In a controlled trial of 30 cases of persistent diarrhoea in infants, ciprofloxacin was used parenterally for systemic antibiotic therapy. Group A cases (15 in number) were treated with parenteral ciprofloxacin and group B control cases (remaining 15) were treated with parenteral ampicillin and chloramphenicol or ampicillin/amikacin along with treatment of dehydration and malnutrition. All group A cases had excellent response and 9 infants of group B had no response up to day 4. After stopping all other drugs and with parenteral ciprofloxacin they responded favourably. Follow-up of all the cases was done regularly every 2 weeks for 6 months after discharge. No toxicity of ciprofloxacin was noted.
