The first consideration in selecting an antimicrobial agent is whether it is indicated.
![Page 5: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Antibiotics are antibacterial substances produced by various species of microorganisms (bacterial, fungi, and actinomycetes) that suppress the growth of the microorganisms.
![Page 6: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 6
Common usage often exclude the term antibiotics to include synthetic antimicrobial agents, such as sulphonamides and quinolones.
![Page 7: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Antibiotics have three general uses:• Empirical therapy• Definitive therapy• Prophylactic or preventive therapy.
![Page 8: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 8
When used as empirical or initial therapy, the antibiotic should cover all the likely pathogens because the infecting organism(s) has not yet been defined.
![Page 9: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 9
Optimal and judicious selection of antimicrobial agents for the therapy of infectious diseases requires clinical judgement and detailed knowledge of pharmacological and microbiological factors.
![Page 10: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

The quinolones are a family of synthetic broad –spectrum antibiotic drugs.
![Page 11: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 11
The first generation of the quinolones began with the introduction of nalidixic acid in 1962 for the treatment of urinary tract infections in humans.
![Page 12: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

• There are simple quinolones and fluoroquinolones.• FQs are quinolone antimicrobials
having one or more fluorine substituations.
![Page 13: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 13
The ‘first generation’ FQs was introduced in 1980’s.
![Page 14: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 14
In the 1990s, compounds with additional fluoro and other substitutions have been developed (2nd generation FQs)- further extending antimicrobial activity to gram +ve cocci and anaerobes, and/ conferring metabolic stability (long t1/2), and/ or conferring metabolic stability (longer t1/2).

Therapeutic uses of simple quinolones:
• Uncomplicated urinary tract infection.• Urinary antiseptic.• Diarrhea casued by Proteus, E. coli.
Salmonella, Shigella (ampicillin resistant).
![Page 17: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 17
Fluoroquinolones are the only class of antimicrobial agents in clinical use that are direct inhibitors of bacterial DNA synthesis.
![Page 18: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 18
They inhibit two bacterial enzymes, DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV.
![Page 19: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 19
Fluoroquinolones are bactericidal agents.
![Page 20: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

FQ enter the host cells and are therefore active against intracellular pathogens, e.g. Mycoplasma spp, and Chlamydia spp.
![Page 21: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 21
Spectrum of ActivityThe greatest activity of FQs is against
aerobic gm-ve bacilli, particularly Enterobacteriaceae, and against Haemophilus spp and gm-ve cocci e.g. Neisseria spp and Moraxella catarrhalis, and also against non-enteric gm-ve bacilli such as Ps aeruginosa and against staphylococci.

04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 28
Absorption
The quinolones are well absorbed from the upper gastrointestinal tract.
![Page 29: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 29
Concentration in prostate tissue, stool, bile, lung, and neutrophlis as well as macrophages usually exceed serum concentrations.
![Page 30: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 30
Resistance
• Resistance to FQs has been slow to develop.• Increasing resistance has been
reported among Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococci, Gonococci and Pneumococci.
![Page 31: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 31
Resistance cont’d
• The likelihood of developing quinolone resistance is thought to be related to the intensity and duration of therapy.• Resistance may occur via mutations
in chromosomal genes via mutations in plasmids
![Page 32: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 32
Resistance cont’d
• The use of the most potent FQ is a logical choice if resistance has to be avoided/ delayed.• Previous exposure to an FQ in the
recent past precludes the use of a member of this class for the empirical treatment of CAP.
![Page 33: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Community-aquired LRTI is a very common cause of acute illness and probably the most common reason for lost working time in adults.
![Page 53: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

The spectrum of disease ranges from a mild mucosal colonization or infection, an acute bronchitis or AE/COPD to an overwhelming parenchyma infection with the patient presenting with a severe CAP.
![Page 54: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

It is an acute illness (present for 21 days or less), usually with cough as the main symptom, with at least one other LRT symptom (sputum, dyspnea, wheeze or chest discomfort/pain) and no alternative explanation (e.g. sinusitis or asthma).
![Page 55: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 55
Definitive CAP• Is an acute illness with cough and at
least one of new focal chest signs, fever more than 4 days or dyspnea/ tachypnea, and without an obvious cause. • Supported by chest radiograph
findings of lung shadowing that is likely to be new.
![Page 56: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

• CAP is a common and potentially serious illness.• It is associated with considerable
morbidity and mortality, particularly in elderly patients and those with significant co-morbidities.
![Page 57: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 57
• Pneumonia, which is most often a bacterial disease, should, in general, be treated with antibiotics.• A delay of more than 8 hours in
treatment is associated with increased mortality.
![Page 58: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 58
Older quinolones, such as ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin have rather poor anti-pneumococcal efficacy and are not recommended for the empirical treatment of CAP.
![Page 59: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Advantages of Respiratory FQ
• They exhibit broad spectrum coverage including all common LRTI pathogens.
• They have a high bioavailability.• They have good penetration resulting in

AE/COPDAn event in the natural course of the
disease characterized by a worsening of the patient’s baseline dyspnea, cough and/or sputum beyond day-to-day variability sufficient to warrant a change in management (chest radiograph shadowing consistent with infection confirms CAP)

• FQs may be used as mono-therapy to treat high risk patients with AE/COPD, for patients with CAP requiring hospitalization, but not admission to ICU.• The newer FQs often achieve clinical
cure rates in more than 90 % of these patients.

• There appears to be an increase in multidrug- resistant TB.• It was estimated that in 2004 half a
million new cases of MDR-TB cases were diagnosed world wide.
![Page 78: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

Of the new compounds being tested for their efficacy in TB treatment, the FQ are the first novel drugs since the development of rifamycins to have been shown to have significant activity against M. tuberculosis.
![Page 79: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)

• Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) is defined as TB resistant to at least isoniazid and rifampin.• Extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-
TB) is caused by MDR strains that are also resistant to at least one FQ and one or more injectable agents.
![Page 80: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)

• The anti-TB activity of FQs has been under investigation since the 1980s.• FQs are novel anti-TB drugs to be
used when a patient is infected with a MDR-TB strain.
![Page 81: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)

Many are active in vitro but only a few, including oflaxicin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, levofloxacin and lemofloxaxin, have been clinically assessed.
![Page 82: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)

• The choice of FQ should be based not only on the in vitro activity, but also on the long-term tolerance.• The in vivo activity of FQs is
concentration dependent.
![Page 83: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)

• The administration of FQ for CAP patients with TB has been associated with delay in diagnosis and increased resistance and poor outcomes.• Multiple FQs prescriptions for
undiagnosed TB were more likely to have FQ resistant M. TB.
![Page 84: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)

According to a recent meta analysis of 11 randomized controlled trials comprising a total of 1,514 patients, no statistically significant difference was observed in relation to cure, treatment failure and clinical and radiological improvement when first-line drugs were replaced by a FQ (ciprofloxacin, oflaxacin or moxifloxacin).
![Page 85: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)

Thus, there is currently no justification for the substitution of a FQ for first line drugs or the addition of a FQ to the standard regime.
![Page 86: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
04/11/2023 amrhamdy MD FCCP 86
Moxifloxacin at the recommended daily dose of 400mg is the most active FQ against TB, while ciprofloxacin is the least effective.
![Page 87: Quinoloes in the treatment of respiratory tract](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081516/554ae846b4c905a37c8b535e/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)

Warning
The broad spectrum activity and common use against many other infections is also concern, since widespread use of this class of antibiotics may lead to a rapid increase in already emerging resistance problems.

It is wise not to use respiratory FQs as a first-line therapy for LRTI, but to reserve these drugs for selected patients with CAP.
