Abstract
The penetration of trovafloxacin (TVA), 200 mg once daily, into the airways of 17 patients with severe pneumonia was studied. The mean (standard deviations are given in parentheses) steady-state TVA concentrations, 2 h after the last intake, were 3.1 (0.3) mg/liter in induced sputum (n = 8), 3.2 (1.1) mg/liter in bronchial secretions (n = 9), 3.2 (0.9) mg/liter in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (n = 10), and 4.9 (1.4) mg/liter in epithelial lining fluid (n = 11).Entities:
