    喹诺酮 (从喹啉中提取的一种抗生素,主要用来灭杀革兰氏阴性微生物)

    Example sentencesExamples
    • When used in combination with agents from other antibiotic classes, such as beta-lactams and aminoglycosides, the quinolones are not predictably synergistic.
    • Drugs that have been implicated include penicillin, aminopenicillins, sulfonamides, allopurinol, thiazides, quinolones, hydantoins, and propylthiouracil.
    • The patient was treated with quinolones with significant improvement but died 1 month later, apparently from upper airway obstruction.
    • Tetracycline or quinolones for a period of 6 months or until nasal biopsies are negative are recommended.
    • In addition, one study reported an eightfold increase in a medication-resistant food-poisoning bacteria after the antibiotic - quinolone - was approved to be used in chickens.
    • Patients with prior exposure to any of the quinolones are likely to develop resistance to other quinolones.
    • The original quinolone antibiotics included nalidixic acid, cinoxacin and oxolinic acid (no longer available in the United States).
    • Resistance to quinolones can also develop because of alterations in bacterial permeability and the development of efflux pumps.
    • These agents can bind to several drug classes including quinolones, and tetracyclines.
    • The quinolones are broad-spectrum antibiotics.
    • Persons who have a history of hypersensitivity to levofloxacin, quinolone antimicrobial agents or any other components of the medication should not use levofloxacin.
