Description

Tosufloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent. Tosufloxacin is an inhibitor of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Tosufloxacin is indicated for the treatment of various infections such as skin, respiratory, urinary, gynecologic, ophthalmologic, otolaryngologic, dental infections. Fluoroquinolones including tosufloxacin have a potential risk of inducing cartilage and joint toxicity in children. It is also associated with severe thrombocytopenia and nephritis, and hepatotoxicity.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
In general, for adults, take 2 to 3 tablets (300 to 450 mg of the active ingredient) a day, in 2 to 3 divided doses. The dosage may be adjusted according to disease, symptoms, etc. of the patient. If symptoms are severe or the effect is insufficient, take 4 tablets (600 mg) a day. Osteomyelitis, arthritis: In general, for adults, take 1 tablet (150 mg of the active ingredient) at a time, 3 times a day. The dosage may be adjusted according to disease, symptoms, etc. of the patient. If symptoms are severe or the effect is insufficient, take 4 tablets (600 mg) a day. Typhoid/paratyphoid fever: In general, for adults, take 1 tablet (150 mg of the active ingredient) at a time, 4 times a day for 14 days.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
The MIC90s of tosufloxacin among the 27 isolates of macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MRMP) was 0.25 ug/ml and those among the 23 isolates of macrolide-sensitive Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MSMP) was 0.5 μg/ml.
