ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
ACTION
Ciprofloxacin, a synthetic fluoroquinolone, has
_in vitro _
activity against a wide range of gram-
negative and gram-positive microorganisms. Its bactericidal action is
achieved through inhibition
of topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV (both Type II
topoisomerases), which are
required for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and
recombination.
Ciprofloxacin retained some of its bactericidal activity after
inhibition of RNA and protein synthesis
by rifampin and chloramphenicol, respectively. These observations
suggest ciprofloxacin may
possess two bactericidal mechanisms, one mechanism resulting from the
inhibition of DNA gyrase
and a second mechanism which may be independent of RNA and protein
synthesis.
The mechanism of action of fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin,
is different from that of
penicillins,
cephalosporins,
aminoglycosides,
macrolides,
and
tetracyclines.
Therefore,
microorganisms resistant to these classes of drugs may be susceptible
to ciprofloxacin. Co
