In an open study, 70 in-patients and 23 out-patients aged between 1 and 14 years with sinusitis (n = 1), perforated otitis media (n = 4), pharyngotonsillitis (n = 25), tracheobronchitis (n = 30) or broncho-pneumonia (n = 33) were treated daily with a combination of 40 mg/kg amoxycillin and 10 mg/kg
Fifty-two patients with serious respiratory infections were treated with orally administered ciprofloxacin; 42 patients were evaluable for the efficacy analysis and all were evaluable for determining adverse reactions. Cures were achieved in 24 patients with infections (14 with bronchitis, 10 with
Fifty-one patients with chronic obstructive lung disease with a proven bacterial respiratory tract infection were treated with ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice daily or 750 mg twice daily. Both dosages were given orally for approximately 10 days. The higher dosage showed a reduced amount of reinfections
BACKGROUND
Moxifloxacin is an advanced-generation fluoroquinolone used primarily for the treatment of respiratory tract infections.
OBJECTIVE
To further investigate moxifloxacin's general and cardiac safety and evaluate its efficacy in the community practice setting in a large surveillance
Erythromycin acistrate (EA)--a new ester of erythromycin--was compared with erythromycin base as enterocoated pellets in capsules (EB enterocapsules) and enterocoated tablets of erythromycin base (EB enterotablets) in the treatment of respiratory tract infections. The present double-blind,
We conducted an open randomized trial to compare the efficacy of parenteral and oral ofloxacin with that of amoxycillin/clavulanate. A total of 121 patients was studied; 92 were clinically evaluable. Of these, 59 patients were treated with ofloxacin and 33 with the comparator drug. Patients were
An open clinical study of ofloxacin in respiratory tract infections was conducted with patients receiving daily doses of ofloxacin 300 mg, 400 mg or 600 mg. The duration of treatment was 6 to 14 days for 70% of the patients. Ofloxacin was effective in 668 of 828 patients analysed (80.7%). Of 293

Two recent studies have identified copious secretions as an independent risk factor for perioperative adverse events in children who present for elective surgery in the presence of an upper respiratory tract infection (URI). We designed this study, therefore, to determine whether the administration
Clarithromycin is an orally active, advanced-generation macrolide that has been reformulated as an extended-release tablet (Biaxin) XL Filmtab allowing convenient once-daily administration. The reformulation is intended to improve patient compliance and the tolerability of the drug. Although maximum
OBJECTIVE
The pharmacology, mechanisms of resistance, in vitro activity, clinical efficacy, pharmacokinetics, indications, adverse effects, dosage and administration, and place in therapy of telithromycin in the treatment of respiratory infections are reviewed.

The results of an open randomised trial comparing the efficacy of parenteral and oral ofloxacin with that of amoxycillin clavulanate are reported. Of 121 patients enrolled, 92 were clinically evaluable, of whom 59 were treated with ofloxacin and 33 with amoxycillin clavulanate. In the ofloxacin
The efficacy and tolerability of erythromycin ethylsuccinate, erythromycin base and erythromycin acistrate were studied in two separate randomized studies in 80 and 82 primary health care patients with upper respiratory tract infections. In Study I, the patients were given either ethylsuccinate 666
