Activity of Gemifloxacin against Penicillin- and Ciprofloxacin-Resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae Displaying Topoisomerase- and Efflux-Mediated Resistance Mechanisms

Nine penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae clinical isolates from Northern Ireland, resistant to ciprofloxacin (MICs, 2 to 64 μg/ml) through topoisomerase- and/or reserpine-sensitive efflux mechanisms, were highly susceptible to gemifloxacin (MICs, 0.03 to 0.12 μg/ml). Two strains (requiring...
