Influence of dosage interval on the therapeutic response to gentamicin in mice infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae.

abstract：:Owing to the predominance of gram-positive pathogens in neutropenic cancer patients, newer generation quinolones with an expanded gram-positive spectrum and enhanced potency, may have a role to play for prophylaxis and/or empiric therapy in such patients. The in vitro activity of gatifloxacin was compared with that of...
