We proposed using MLC for assay of azithromycin in tablets and capsules. As alternative conventional reversed-phase HPLC method MLC was used for analysis of Biseptol (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) tablets and injection. The MLC was proposed to assay of triprolydine hydrochloride and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride in tablets as alternative normal-phase HPLC method described in USP phamiacopoeia. [Pg.390]

The cornerstone of cholera treatment is fluid replacement. Without treatment, the case-fatality rate for severe cholera is approximately 50%. For cholera, rice-based ORT is better than glucose-based ORT because it reduces the number of stools.21 Patients with significant disease should receive a short antibiotic course, 1 to 3 days, to shorten the duration of illness and decrease the number of stools. Doxycycline 300 mg once daily is the drug of choice. Other antibiotics shown to be effective include erythromycin, azithromycin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and ciprofloxacin.2 Antibiotic resistance has been documented in V cholerae since 1977.2 Antibiotic prophylaxis is not warranted.

The agent of choice depends on location. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is used for infections acquired in the United States. For infections acquired outside the United States, the agents of choice are ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, and azithromycin. Fluoroquinolones are generally contraindicated in children and adolescents.

In uncomplicated exacerbations, recommended therapy includes a mac-rolide (azithromycin, clarithromycin), second- or third-generation cephalosporin, or doxycycline. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole should not be used because of increasing pneumococcal resistance. Amoxicillin and first-generation cephalosporins are not recommended because of /1-lactamase susceptibility. Erythromycin is not recommended because of insufficient activity against H. influenzae.

The third-generation cephalosporins (e.g., ceftriaxone, ceflxime, cefotaxime, and cefoperazole) and azithromycin are also effective drugs for typhoid. Chloramphenicol, amoxicillin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole remain appropriate for the treatment of typhoid fever in areas of the world where the bacterium is still fully susceptible to these drugs and where the fluoroquinolones are not available or affordable. Although fluoroquinolones are not recommended in children, the pediatric use of ciprofloxacin in areas where multidrug-resistant S. typhi occurs is acceptable. In pregnant women, the p lactam antibiotics are safe, and there are some case reports to support fluoroquinolone use. [Pg.2045]

Most patients presenting with pyuria will, in facL have infection that requires treatment. Single-dose or short-course therapy with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole has been used effectively, and prolonged courses of therapy are not necessary for most patients. If single-dose or short-course therapy is ineffective, a culture should be obtained. If the patient reports recent sexual activity, therapy for C. trachomatis should be considered. Chlamydial treatment should consist of 1-g azithromycin or doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 7 days. Often, concomitant treatment of all sexnal partners is re-qnired to cure chlamydial infections and prevent reacqnisition (see Chap. 115). [Pg.2088]

The most common treatments for Q fever are tetracyclines. Macrolide antibiotics, such as erythromycin and azithromycin, are also effective. Other agents used to treat Q fever include quinolones, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Clinical experience with these drugs is limited. Treatment is most effective when administered during the 10- to 40-day incubation period. [Pg.140]
