  • Title: In vitro activity of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin against the Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex.
    Author: Johnson SM, Roberts GD.
    Journal: Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis; 1987 May; 7(1):89-91. PubMed ID: 3121243.
    Abstract:
    The in vitro activity of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin against strains of Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex were studied by the standard 1% proportion method. Thirty-eight of 100 strains (30%) were inhibited by ciprofloxacin at 2 micrograms/ml and 11 of 30 strains (37%) were inhibited by ofloxacin at 8 microm/ml. Patients having these more susceptible isolates may potentially benefit from therapy with these agents [corrected].
