  • Title: Antibacterial therapy in cystic fibrosis.
    Author: Mouton JW, Kerrebijn KF.
    Journal: Med Clin North Am; 1990 May; 74(3):837-50. PubMed ID: 2186247.
    Abstract:
    Bacterial lung infections determine the prognosis for most cystic fibrosis patients. The antibacterial therapy is difficult because of the host-bacterium interaction and altered pharmacokinetics. The new insights in the working mechanisms of antibiotics that may lead to better treatment results have been discussed, and guidelines for treatment of lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients were given.
