Low endotoxin release from Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis during exposure to moxifloxacin.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Taxanes cause hypersensitivity reactions, averted by premedication with H1 blockers and high glucocorticoid (GC) doses. Prolonged weekly taxane administration may lead to GC toxicity. PURPOSE:To determine whether patients not hypersensitive to initial paclitaxel (PTX) infusion after high-dose GC premedicati...
