lomefloxacin and Drug Hypersensitivity studies

lomefloxacin and Drug Hypersensitivity

lomefloxacin: structure given in first source
lomefloxacin : A fluoroquinolone antibiotic, used (generally as the hydrochloride salt) to treat bacterial infections including bronchitis and urinary tract infections. It is also used to prevent urinary tract infections prior to surgery.

Drug Hypersensitivity: Immunologically mediated adverse reactions to medicinal substances used legally or illegally.

"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)."	3.73	T 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."	1.31	Photosensitivity to lomefloxacin. A clinical and photobiological study. ( Figueiredo, AC; Gonçalo, M; Oliveira, HS, 2000)
