fleroxacin and Seizures

fleroxacin has been researched along with Seizures in 4 studies

Fleroxacin: A broad-spectrum antimicrobial fluoroquinolone. The drug strongly inhibits the DNA-supercoiling activity of DNA GYRASE.
fleroxacin : A fluoroquinolone antibiotic that is 4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline which is substituted at positions 1, 3, 6, 7 and 8 by 2-fluoroethyl, carboxy, fluoro, 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl and fluoro groups, respectively. It is active against many Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The clinical risk of convulsion for each combination was estimated using a pharmacodynamic model based on receptor occupancy using the in vitro data set obtained and pharmacokinetic parameters in humans collected from the literature."1.35Quantitative comparison of the convulsive activity of combinations of twelve fluoroquinolones with five nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents. ( Kim, J; Ohtani, H; Sawada, Y; Tsujimoto, M, 2009)
"Convulsant activity of pazufloxacin mesilate (PZFX mesilate), a new quinolone antibacterial agent for intravenous use, in combination with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) was investigated in mice after intravenous or intracerebroventricular administration."1.31[Drug interactions between nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and pazufloxacin mesilate, a new quinolone antibacterial agent for intravenous use: convulsions in mice after intravenous or intracerebroventricular administration]. ( Fukuda, H; Kawamura, Y, 2002)
"No convulsion was evoked in mice at high oral combination doses of fleroxacin and fenbufen."1.28Possibility for induction of convulsion by fleroxacin and its disposition in the central nervous system in animals. ( Hori, S; Kawahara, F; Kobayashi, F; Ooie, T; Saito, S; Sakai, O; Shimada, J; Taga, F; Uchida, H, 1990)
