Abstract
- The article presents a study which aims to examine the effectiveness of Levofloxacin in treating cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Numerous data revealed that CF levofloxacin pharmacokinetics corrected for body weight are similar to non-CF but the standard levofloxacin dosing is unlikely to produce maximum therapeutic effectiveness. Thus, further levofloxacin CF studies are essential to assess its phlegm concentrations for coping Pseudomonas Aeruginosa pulmonary infections.
