Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To better understand how T cells interact with quinolones, we analysed six patients with delayed hypersensitivity reactions to ciprofloxacin (CPFX), norfloxacin (NRFX) or moxifloxacin (MXFX)."3.73T cell-mediated hypersensitivity to quinolones: mechanisms and cross-reactivity. ( Depta, JP; Pichler, WJ; Schmid, DA, 2006)
" As in previous reports there are arguments favouring photoallergy, but phototoxicity appears to be the main mechanism of photosensitivity to quinolones, particularly in older patients with concomitant diseases and long-term use of the drug."1.31Photosensitivity to lomefloxacin. A clinical and photobiological study. ( Figueiredo, AC; Gonçalo, M; Oliveira, HS, 2000)
