They have a tendency to damage growing cartilage and cause arthropathy The arthropathy is generally reversible. Tendinitis may occur, and in rare instances in adults, this finding may lead to tendon ruptures. [Pg.80]

Fluoroquinolones may damage growing cartilage and cause an arthropathy. Thus, these drugs are not routinely recommended for patients under 18 years of age. However, the arthropathy is reversible, and there is a growing consensus that fluoroquinolones may be used in children in some cases (eg, for treatment of pseudomonal infections in patients with cystic fibrosis). Tendinitis, a rare complication that has been reported in adults, is potentially more serious because of the risk of tendon rupture. Risk factors for tendonitis include advanced age, renal insufficiency, and concurrent... [Pg.1038]
