THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
ANTIBACTERIAL AGENT
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 actions 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.
Conversely, microorganisms resistant to fluoroquinolones may be
susceptible to these other
classes of antimicrobial agents, (see
MICROBILOGY
) There is not cross-resistance between
ciprofloxacin and the mentioned classes of antibiotics.
