RESUMO
Enoxacin, a new 6-fluoroquinolone known to be active in vitro against most common pulmonary pathogens, was evaluated in comparison with ceftazidime, a third generation cephalosporin proven to be effective in the treatment of gram negative pneumonias. Clinical and microbiologic responses to therapy were satisfactory and comparable in both antibiotic groups. Enoxacin could be an effective alternative choice in the treatment of lower respiratory tract infections caused by gram negative organisms.
