Use of fluoroquinolones in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus-induced liver failure.

H Kojima1, K D E Kaita, K Hawkins, J Uhanova, G Y Minuk.   

Abstract

Fluroquinolone antibiotics have been reported to have antiviral properties against RNA viruses, including hepatitis C virus (HCV). In the present study, five patients with advanced liver disease secondary to chronic HCV received 500 mg daily of oral ciprofloxacin for 30 days. Serum HCV-RNA levels and liver enzyme abnormalities remained largely unchanged. Thus, the role of fluoroquinolones as antiviral agents for chronic HCV in patients with advanced liver disease appears to be limited.
