gatifloxacin has been researched along with Adnexitis in 1 studies

Gatifloxacin: A fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent and DNA TOPOISOMERASE II inhibitor that is used as an ophthalmic solution for the treatment of BACTERIAL CONJUNCTIVITIS.
gatifloxacin : A monocarboxylic acid that is 4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid which is substituted on the nitrogen by a cyclopropyl group and at positions 6, 7, and 8 by fluoro, 3-methylpiperazin-1-yl, and methoxy groups, respectively. Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic of the fourth-generation fluoroquinolone family, that like other members of that family, inhibits the bacterial topoisomerase type-II enzymes.

Adnexitis: Inflammation of the uterine appendages (ADNEXA UTERI) including infection of the FALLOPIAN TUBES (SALPINGITIS), the ovaries (OOPHORITIS), or the supporting ligaments (PARAMETRITIS).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" To consider the optimized administration method based on PK/PD theory for gatifloxacin (GFLX), which was one of the oral fluoroquinolone antibacterial, we influenzae investigated clinical efficacies and adverse events for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in giving GFLX daily 400 mg divided twice a day or four times a day."3.73[Clinical investigation on administration method of gatifloxacin based on PK/PD theory].
